I've thought about doing a widebody E550 cabriolet. Anyone have any recomendations for shops in Canada that could actually do it?

SL550, E350 Coupe
An E63 Coupe would be sick. I've read that MBZ isn't going to make one though because they feel that the C63 coupe fills that market segment. It doesn't. Some people just don't want to drive a C-class. If MBZ doesn't make one in the next few years I'll consider ripping the engine out of my E350 and putting a TT V12 in it.

2012 MB E350 Coupe
Too bad the BRABUS EV12 Coupe is too damn pricy.

6.3-liter twin-turbo V12 putting out 800 horsepower and 1047 lb-ft torque. Brabus quotes a 0-100 km/h time of just 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 230 mph.

What is all of this going to cost you? 478,000 Euros – approximately $650,000 using today's exchange rate, or more than 13 E-Class Coupes.

Why? I'm running 285s in the rear and there is still a little room toward the interior. I'm sure I could go 295 and likely could squeeze in a 305 if I wanted.

Or do you just really like the "hips" and want to make them bigger?

BTW, what rear diffuser do you have?

I believe he bought off the E coupe (Hong Kong) site:
Chan Bill [ecoupeshop@yahoo.com.hk]

I contacted them, but the response to email questions is very slow, if at all.

I still can't believe they made an E63 wagon and not a coupe....
