regarding my other post about the kid with the cl65, you took pictures that are beleivable! That is what beleivable pictures look like. Beautiful cars! I'm looking to do a study abroad program in Malaysia with my business school. Hopefully I will see your CL65 around if I'm there. Truly an engineering marvel.

brabus, partly also because I dont post like a 12 yr old. And all the pictures are taken at my home so whats not to believe? everytime i screw and yelled at posers and trolls, you wouldn't think i'll be one myself? that would be the most ironic hypocrate thing to do. stupid as well like some kids.

what xeon say is rather true. most exchange student programs are done in west malaysia only where the big cities are located. i am from the eastern side of malaysia. in case you guys dont know, malaysia consist of two seperate land on different continents. one on south of thailand and the other on the kalimantan area shared with indonesia.

i can't stand be mentioned full throttle, i am going crazy. full throttle. arghh! 700km to go. i just reach 800km today

sure would give a report. really comtemplating to get the kleeman upgrades

Nah, you do realise there are a lot of guys in MBforum with much more wicked rides then me man. Mine are perhaps a lil bit above average i suppose? lol

Nope the F1 bumper with side vents are purely for SL65AMG and SLK55AMG only. CL is not offered with that item. Now I wonder how much different in air flow dow that side vent makes, I must tell you, this car makes a lot of heat! It even disrupted my external temperature sensor. Temperature was 31c but the car heat trick the sensor all the way up to 45c at times! lol

Xeon, I just reach 900km today. Man it feels eternal. I travel around 70km everyday to and back from work. I just can't wait lol. Today email Kleeman of Denmark and Malaysia, getting response on price quotation and DHL time and tuning time for ecu reflash.

I worship Ben Treynor! :p

To be honest I really find no reason to get a convertible here because the place I am from is just too hot to really make sure of a convertible. Perhaps if I have an SL maybe I'll open the top maybe once or twice a month? or maybe less. CL practically does everything a SL does apart from opening the top. Well, it definately have the wow factor. Well not for now at least, maybe i'll change my mind in future. who knows?

Thanks guys. Thank you for the comments. My CL is 1150 now. 350 to go and i'll really let her loose! Tried to take a peak today at 4500rpm half throttle. Wow I love the power lol.

Getting quotation from kleeman denmark now. Was told will take approx 2 weeks to ship out, tune, ship back ecu. And just plug it voila! Sounded just way too easy and too good to be true to me to so easily boost hp to 737hp and 1300nm!

For the person asking about slapping a charger or turbo on the S55, well, I would love to but from the place where i am from, we dont have such luxuries like that states. Theres no such profession or expertise here. I can find the turbo but who's to do it with a merc? You talk about Evo or Wrx tuning up plenty here but merc, everyone says no, can't do it. Or no I won't touch it lol. You think i haven't tried that route?? Unless you're really going to lay down the dough by specially hiring the engineers flying them over, booking them for accomodation bla blah blah, man that will cost a bomb, too much for me to think about wasting. Just won't worth it.
