which MB should I get?
I am new to the tuner world and would like some opinions on which way to go...I am seriously considering either a 2003-4 E55, CL55, or CL600. I would immediately do a Kleeman upgrade to whichever I decide...my tendencies lie with the CL because I like the body style better...any opinions? what can I expect after the mods in regards to HP/Torque?
thanks in advance

What other cars have you had before? And what is your current car?
Your car history will help others to make suggestions for your next vehicle..
Also, are you looking to upgrade from your current primary vehicle, stay the same, or move to a competitor?

Thanks for the response Shahed..I currently have a Ferrari 360 Modena, G500, and a piece of crap Pontiac Grand Prix for every day...I am looking for high performance in a car with more than 2 seats. does the CL have decent room in the back seat?

What is your height? If you are 5'10" there will be plenty of room behind the front seat. If you are 6'6," there will not be any room behind the seat.

CL600 or 2005 OR newer E55....
I have both of these cars for sale right now.... if you get a E55 go 05 or newer... it has a much better suspension out of the CLS and other improvements over the other years...
My E55 has 41k miles ...keyless go and lighting package. rear shade and is pewter over black with chrome AMG wheels.. it also has a 100k mile fact warranty till 2011 asking $48,500
and I have a 2003 CL600 with 12k miles ... silver on black with every available option ....distronic...parktronic...tpm system...ect... excellent condition... it also has 3 years left or 100k on fact. warranty... and the car has 20" OZ wheels staggered.... $49k
both of these cars are priced low for the market
the CL600 is the lowest mile warrantied car under $60k in the US....

Last year, I got an offer from my future brother-in-law to buy his 348 Spider for about $50k, since I was about to pay $60k for my fully-loaded 07 SLK. But I decided that I would rather buy a slightly newer Ferrari a few years later, maybe a 360 Modena or Spider.

Right now, I am happy with the 2007 SLK.

Any plans to sell your Modena in a few years?
