Got a new Signature Pic & question about clk430 upgrades

Hello,

What do you think of the new signature picture??

Also I want to upgrade the power on my 99clk430. Have any of you guys made any mods to your intake/exhaust/chip/under-drive pulleys, or superchargers that don't cost 16k.

Thanks
Jeremy

wow!

is that a CLK430 ELEGANCE?

Did they offer the ELEGANCE 430 in the USA before 2000?

Just curious!

Nice legs by the way.... were they an option from MB?

Not sure I know what the elegance is.... it is just a 99 clk430. I added the chrome exhaust tip( if that is what your asking about).

The legs aren't standard, they are a costly option(wife). :p

sorry jeremy..

in other markets, the elegance version means that the standard options include:

Bur walnut interior
black instrument cluster
chrome window trims and around door handles
green tint glass
normal suspension

while the avantgarde version means

birds eye maple interior
grey instrument cluster
black window trims and body color door handle
blue tint glass
sport suspension

i noticed the window trims and thought your 430 was an elegance..which seem rare for the US !!! just curious thats all.

thanks for the info on the legs.. i did a pre feasability study on it and ....NAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Yeah, you have to have the right woman(don't jump into something you don't want). But just look at all the benefits I have hehehehe

Kinda funny about the elegance.... it sounds exactly like my car minus the green tint& suspension. I love the burl wood and hate the birds eye maple(too dark)

Nice sig but lose the tattered denim shorts...
Oops, didn't mean that, meant tailored shorts would look better.
Nice ride and nice wife.
