Very, very nice !!!!

A new Merc can't give you what the W124 can......
They could be as docile as you want, or more aggressive then you need.
Best is that they are recognizable....can't mistake their Teutonic posture !!

My first thing I wanted was a 500E whith a manuel transmission... so I had to take the enging out and do some modifing... and when I have the enging out, why not do some tuning to. So I thought I would do the easy thing and just supercharge it... but the supercharger wouldn't fit... then I thought I put on two turbochargers... but the oilsupply to the turbos whould be to long... so I did the tuning the old fashion way... whith bad-as camshafts, carbonfiber airbox, high revs and valvs for each cylinder.

But as you see, the body needed a makeover... so I fitted 11x18" in the front and 13x18" in the back ATS GTC whithe a centrumwheelnut. Then we wanted the car to be light... so the whole body will be in carbonfiber... And when I say I, I mean we since my wife is in on the project as well

I think I can speak for everyone on this one. This is going to be one awesome car. You're doing things I think everyone one of us wish we were doing. 500E with a manual transmission. Looking forward to seeing this one.

The car used to weigh nearly 3300... I can only imagine how much it is going to be now especially since you are stripping it. Are you going to keep it 'luxury' inside with leather and maybe navigation screen?

The curb weight on the 500s is about 3850 or 3900 lbs.

Are you losing the glass, the AC, and all the extras?
