Nice pics! The heritage logo embossed is a really nice touch. Does that come as an option?

Its standard issue on the Edition 1 sedans and Coupe I believe.

As is the red contrast stitching.

Incredible car and fantastic photos. I would make the first one my screensaver if the resolution was higher.
Very well-done

mods

No mods yet, however I do own a Eurocharged Tune, and I have PLM headers sitting on the box, I just felt the car was good enough, for now, plus with the black series coming in - not sure I need those mods. But I will if I decide to keep the sedan and not go with the Black Series.

Cleaning

I use only Dr. Beasley products, they are sold out of Chicago, at Simon's Shine Shop, the owner is a chemist by trade, and has formulated everything from scratch for matte finishes, they get everything from McLarens to Matte Lambos, and of course my car. They use special buckets, that allow the silt to reach the bottom, and the mitts are always new as well, they take really good care of the car, and if you buy product from them, (they have a whole matte care kit) I highly recommend it.

You cant use regular car wash soap, it eventually starts to make the finish shine if you do use regular car wash soaps.

For any of you matte finish guys, you can call:

http://www.simonsshineshop.com/
(773) 348-2000
Ask for Jim Lafaber. Hes the owner of Dr. Beasleys.

Heres a blog post on the matte care: http://www.drbeasleys.com/blog/2011/...63-amg-photos/
