Did you get coil-overs or springs only? How is the ride and handling?

springs only... the ride quality and handling have not changed at all. i guess once i go with low profile tires the handling will improve.

I thought you would go for an ECU retune option

the kd box is undetectable and it doesn't void the warranty. ECU Tune on the other hand will void warranty because the dealer will be able to tell if the ECU has been tuned

Then all we need is a spare ECU; plug in/out just like the KD-Box

Nothing specific planned but a few come to mind but I am really slow due to severe lack of time:
Exhaust Tips (recently installed, see pics)
Coilovers (not neccessarily H&R),camber kit etc.
Wheels (these need to be perfect lightweight forged under 23lb 18" or 19", narrowing my options though I'm not sure if these will be staggered or not)
AMG E63/Brabus Front bumper or AMG body kit with side skirts including puddle lights but no rear bumper
Window Tint (not too sure when and if, since NJ laws are fairly strict even though my kid and neighbors kids have their car windows tinted and no problems with the law)

Wow!! Fantastic looking and great to see a Bluetec model here. With those 19' rims this car will be mind-blowing. Love the white exterior colour, extremely rare (especially for us germans) - most of the W211 are black or silver here - quite boring!!

thanks ree, they're actually 20s not 19s. white is my favorite color so i was lucky to find this one.

Wow!!! Looks awesome…only thing that would make this even more stunning to look at, would be the exhaust system of the Sportpackage - but don't know if there is the possibilty to install this since it wasn't available on the W211 Bluetec model here in germany. (Although it was available for all other engines!)
Definitely a sporty and still very elegant car you have.
