My New Toy...CLS 550 4matic

My wife has been letting me play with a new Toy, Hope you guys enjoy.
Renntech Upgrade: 540 HP, 705ft/lb Torque with AWD
Lowered 1" on all airmatic settings since this picture was taken. Sorry for my crappy picture taking ability, all my friends say my pictures do this car no justice.

Great purchase love the color.

Any interior pics or any other upgrades?

A little lower would be even better IMO. take a look at the OBD lowering module a lot of us are using here

Nice. I just upgraded mine also with the Renntech tune. I used the new HHT for my upgrade. I had a few miss fires initially but was advised by Patrick from Renntech to replace the sparkplugs and gap them to 0.022". I also did the BMC airfilters. After the sparkplug replacement all I can say is WOW!!!!

This is mine. I did the Renntech tune (540hp 705 ft-lb), Renntech rear spoiler, changed to the CLS63 exhaust, CLS63 diffuser, ​lowered 1.5", upgraded brakes, MRR GT1 20" staggered wheels, BMC air filter, Bosch sparkplugs gapped to 0.022,
