the 500 has NY plates on it, you would most probably come up missing if that were said up there

THANK YOU! My roof isnt for a glass pano roof look! The black just changes the look a little. My E500 has a pano roof and i like it! It makes the car look sportier to me!

Most enthusiasts stay true to the brand. To each their own

Do you want him to mod HIS car to YOUR taste? Seriously, he can put a big d!ldo on top of his 500e and that's his business. Your mods look good according to you zorro. His mods look good according to him. End of story.


The guy is putting a 2jz engine in a CE....Ummm yeah, i'm with him on this one. It's

Nah.
Honestly, this is a personal opinion, with what appears to be some constructive criticism. He hasn't condemned your car, just stated why the mods are not to his taste.

BABY TALK= "I have had several, many that are MUCH better than your 500E could ever be" Again grow up! My mom is proud of me and yours too! This is not my 1st 2nd 3rd 4th benz boss, I have others too! This 500e is my toy!
lol! "panhandler" i dont beg! I DO! and show you so you can hate! just like you did!
You have no class or netiquette! learn how to critique positive first then negative! or if you dont have nothing nice to say dont say anything!!!
YOU ARE MY FRIEND!!! Tomorrow when you take the mascara off things will be ok!
In contrast, your ranting replies, and rude, personal attacks, are way over the top, and undermine your own credibility.
You are doing some bold things with your cars. We can all respect that, but by throwing your works up on a public forum, you are asking for opinions - just don't expect every one of them to be, 100% adulation.

Lighten up a bit, will ya?

I understand that! but there is a proper way to do things! As you said this is a public site and you can say what you want. He said what he said about my car and I, in return critiqued his car the same way! then i was called a childish a$$hole! I did the same thing he did and got called names!!! If i felt the need to bash some ones car i would point out things i like about it and then softly say the thing that i dont like! But more then likely i wont say anything because to each is own! I saw his car a long time ago and didnt like the the things he did but i would have never told him!!! He is too fast with his mouth! As proven on chrisdpham's post! Mr. 16v sorry if my answers are out of order but when i am called names i react! again SORRY!

Thanks for your response, Jason.
None of us need the approval of anyone else for what we do to our cars, but there will be differing opinions out there.
That being said, I'm glad you didn't chop up your 500E.
I like the whole look of Mr. Zorro's car, and I'm an "old guy" with a modded 500E which you may not like - no boomerang, though.
All different.

My point is that the whole painting the roof black a few years ago started with people wanting to replicate the look of pano roofs. Welcome to 2006. THAT'S what I was commenting about. Comprehend?

When did I tell him to do what I did, initially? I made a comment based on my opinion, is that not allowed here? I could care less what he's doing to a CE, I was providing feedback to his post, then he got all hurt. Go back and take a look.

Take out my face? English, please. Chris and I are actual friends, I have met him personally and we get along great, don't pretend you know anything based on a couple of posts or smiley faces.

Do we really need to get into who started it? That answer is CLEAR.

Thanks S.


Anyway, Jason - I don't know you personally and we clearly have very similar A-type personalities, so there is no point in going back and forth ruining your thread any further. I'm sorry you felt insulted by my critique and while I should have worded it differently or been more sensitive, it's a public forum. I provide help, design and photoshop work and I am respected by many on here and I aim to keep it that way - besides, I've changed a few things on my car since you've seen (and bashed) it, have no fear there are no "Jap" parts you so eloquently called out.

Best of luck with the swap and your 500E, if anything paint those quarter panel strips back to factory!

Sure, you can give some constructive criticism but there isn't any thing constructive about calling it a fake pano roof. He was simply pointing out that you call his roof fake but yet you have projectors, bmw headlight trim, and updated grill. Your post just sounded smug and your comments that followed didn't help either.

Yes, but the difference is, my mods look good.
2. Get a car? I have had several, many that are MUCH better than your 500E could ever be.
Truly unbelievable, even for a n00b like you.

LoL...ok so here's my attempt at steering this thread away from e-fighting! :p

Looks good. If you aren't selling it then no need to keep it all original. Anyway, it's just paint....Not like it can't be painted back to the stock color if it even mattered. I'm a big fan of silver/black combinations on cars, as my previous Altimas show. :p

Might I suggest having your rims painted black. Just a thought. Enjoy your ride, dude. I've seen some ugly mods on other 124's but your car looks good to me. I'll be keeping my 4ooE stock because having fixed up cars has just gotten me too much attention from police in the past. :p

Here was my Altima. Might seem "ricey" to some, but it was a show winner and track winner. So funny to have my n/a fwd family sports sedan beat mustang gt's, wrx's, and evo's at the track. Anyway, I think dark (gunmetal) or black rims would help that black roof.

Nah i won't skip it, that's not what this forum is about, I will be mindful of the fact that we share different mod ideas...bare in mind, mine's not a 500 so I enjoy making it stand out. My other cars remained stock, this one's an experiment and I love her like you love your 500.

It's all good, PS I didn't like the bashing either, we are on the same page. Realistically I am sure your car looks better in person than the pics show.

Have fun, keep us updated on the swap!
