P.S. Did you ever get a car? M3? C63? Something else?
How much do you think they'll make off the car?

As for my car, I'm just riding my Kawi for now.

I'm sure it would cost more, but the warranty would be nice. Just curious if it were similar to Dinan for BMW.
In Affalterbach you can get almost everything what is nice and expensive,
the sky ( wallet ) is the limit.
My BS is getting leather over the dashboard,center console and in the doors.
The steering wheel gets red leather down and a red 12 o'clock mark up.
The two front head rests gets an AMG-logo.

cheers

This past winter my CLK and Earls CLK were both used to develop Weistec's new 3.0L system, forged internals and their new transmission and TC upgrades, my car is now making just over 1000 hp with those mods.

When can we see some detailed videos & pictures of this car? Serious question - I know it's been debated before, not into the drama, it's a real question.

Beautiful blue BTW Cars63 - what are the costs of the custom work @ AMG? Must be ridiculous.

It's not that bad, all custom's together will be a little over 6K. There are much more expensive options

no worries, I know you're not trying to start any drama. What specifically are you looking for? I posted up pics of the new blower and intake and entire engine bay a few months ago. Lots of pics been posted here and on another forum. Weistec has all the videos of dyno runs etc. I can ask them to post. I took the car out to Byron drag strip back in late june but it was 98 degrees and I was having traction issues. We have been having one of the hottest summers on record here in Chicago so I have not bothered taking it back to the track. Temps just finally cooled down here in the past week, if temps stay low I will be running the car at Byron next Saturday 8/25 and will document and video tape all my passes to post here.

Here's a teaser for you. 3.0L Weistec blower and some big snorkels. What you can not really see in this photo is the two huge filters sit up much higher than the engine and stock airboxes and are actually recessed into my hood and works as a ram air system. Take a look at my avatar pic and you can see how high the hood sits and the large duct openings.

Awesome! Definitely want to see some vids of the 1/4 runs. I think I've seen some short clips/pics posted from time to time but never a full "heres what this car does" type video. Maybe I missed it. Definitely see the ram air, thats nuts.

Cars63 - $6k for just the paintjob, or does that include the leather dash, etc? That is less than I would think, you're right.

No, you never missed it becuase we have not made any "here's what it's done" posts becuase we have yet to get off a clean pass in halfway decent conditions. We have just been laying low for the most part. We have actually made a few 1/8 mile passes with it and the times were VERY impressive but I am waiting to make some clean 1/4 mile passes before releasing anything. 1/8 miles passes were 63 records made on 90 degree temps. I'm sure it's going to be a breaking stroy once a post is made of my clean 1/4 mile passes.

that blue color is gorgeous. Are there more pictures? That is the same color of my Porsche that I just sold. Frankly, $6k for something that unique vs. the others is pretty reasonable.
