I had it custom made overseas I can't remember the name but if you are interested I can look it up. I just custom ordered it the way I liked it and they made it except for the paddle shift conversion I did that myself. I beleive the wheel was around $2000 if I'm not mistaken somewhere around there give or take a few.

No the emblem is not a one off. I got that emblem on the net and put that on myself when I installed the wheel.

I saw it listed forsale a month or two ago. He wanted $90000 for it!! Nice car but not worth that much imo.

Do you want to buy it at fair market price I would be happy to sell it to you in stock form and pull all the parts off? It is absolutley MINT MINT MINT local car. Do you know what the Renntech and all other parts are worth on this car even if I sold them used? Like I said I'll sell it to you and put it back to stock...

I am fully aware on how much the renntech parts cost. I understand that it might have low km's but I can import a USDM one and mod it to your level and still probably save $45000. And I do understand that the car in Canada was wayyyy more than in the US but with our dollar sitting where it is, it only makes financial sense to pick one up from down there.

The only thing that I would keep off your car is the lowering module and the ecu upgrade and the intercooler pump upgrades. Everything else I would want stock so I could finish modding it my way.

Obviously the U.S pricing is less but an original Canadian Local Car would always sell for more. The parts that you would be interested in keeping are $16,500 U.S. alone without shipping, Duties and taxes. Did you know that now a U.S. car won't pass Out of Country without a cluster change that would read in Kilometers $6000 to $7000 part from Mercedes. Just some info for you. Anyway I wouldn't sell my car and give it away you don't even want to know what I'm into it for. It's going to take the right buyer and eventually it will sell. I actually don't even car if it sells or not I really like the car. This is my personal car but I am a dealer and sell alot of these types of cars so I am aware of how the market works.

Anways I hope you find what your looking for there an awesome car and I absolutley love mine. Great talking with you.

On my previous S600, I actually went the other way and switched the cluster from MPH to a 360KPH cluster... http://www.viakirill.com/_upload/img/p0/100310/1012.jpg

I don't know about $6000 to $7000 though... I paid about $1200 for mine, purchased directly from AMG in Germany.

I'm not going to argue the fact that the Canadian spec cars are going to be worth more. For me its not worth paying that premium. Its just like the USDM supra I imported. Canadian spec cars are worth more but with the mods mine came with, it was one hell of a deal.

I have a family member that owns a Mercedes shop and to pass the oop you don't need to change the cluster out. If you want it to be Mercedes Benz Certified then yes you will have to bend over and pay to change the cluster. Besides the speedo reads in both kph and mph.

Did Tunerworks do the Renntech upgrades for you?
