if you are after more power than it will be cheaper to go and buy an e55 w210.

what you got now will be more reliable and economic and cost less to drive.
at the other side the e55 is a lot more faster with the famous V8 and the maintnance will cost more.

Decent looking car man! My bet is that you live in California, so which part? Kinda looks like San Diego county to me, but I could be way off!

Ahh I got a little too ahead of myself there. Thank you for the compliment. Maybe one of these days you can make it over to the drag strip in Fontana and see it in person.
