Bro...by the time you get down here...you could find an SL/CL/S65 or CLK63 Black series for a great price. Just take care of business first and you will be awarded with a new Beast !

Your car is a work of art, indeed.

A shame to see it go. I'd be interested if I had 55K lying around. :P

V12Godspeed,

Did you take out the second cats from your car? If so, did you notice a loss in torque or did the power remain the same?

Thanks
