saw that a few weeks back. A bit concerning that they list the same app for both cars. I'd think the tuning would be too different to be able to list one SKU.

The weight difference between the 350 and 550 is negligible (150 lbs or so) and other than the engine the cars are identical, thus I'm not too concerned about the mixed application. The issue for me is that I don't want to lower the entire car 1", I only want to drop the front. Right now my car measures 14.5" up front and 13.75" out back (center of hub to fender) - it looks ridiculous!!

The wheels are the same rolling diameter as the 18s were, so no. I have no idea why the car sits the way it does, but I've looked at a number of coupes and they all seem to be higher in the front.

That's timely for YYZ. I was on their site it seemed
just a few days ago to confirm, and they had only C207 350.

E550 Coupe
That seems completely strange to me because me 550 coupe seems to have a noticably more lower front than back, it seems to be tilted towards the front

Well, i have the 350CDI with 20'' Carlsson + AMG-packet. I have also noticed that the front is noticably higher than the rear. Im also considering to lower my car. Would i mess the car completely if i put the H&R springs only to the front?

I love the car, but don't know why MB switched to those ugly *** calipers. IMO the old ones look way better...

Car looks kind of "tilted to the front" without lowering the rear? Or it's just the angle of the pictures. Too low in my opinion.

Can you post better pictures?

You asked your friend to come and troll with you? Lame and childish. Even if i shared some opinions with you now im starting to feel that you are somehow . Btw, i just drove trough volvo-dealership and saw the new s60 in person and it was boring looking vehicle. You can't not even compare the looks of these two - they are totally in different league.

I don't know if you're talking to me, but I have no affiliation with ml3500. Don't start making empty claims and assumptions. If I have to say something, I have no problem saying it myself. Based on my previous experience I was warning ml3500 about his post. Is every member that has a negative opinion on the E coupes looks going to be associated with me? Give me a break. If I wanted to bring people in to this forum to help me "troll", why would I do it now and not when the argument on the other thread was taking place.

I don't really care but why don't you go to some other forum if you don't have anything else to contribute here than "lol your car looks like car x"?

Is there any update on pictures of this car?
