i finally got around to taking pics of the car and thought id officially introduce myself. i picked up the H&R springs yest and have to wait till July 13 to get them installed. others mods planned so far are 19" e63 rims, maybe tint, kd box & replacing orange reflector on bumper.

 

+1 Very nice. Definitely post some pics, if you can get around to it, in regards to the upgrades.

 

thanks bro... i just changed out the orange reflectors with clear ones today with the help of my brother-in-law. i can post pics in a few days.

 

Great to see another local E. Which dealer did you buy from? I may be selling my 19" CLS wheels if you're interested.

 

i got it from Broadway Mercedes. is it possible to see the rims?

 

You've got PM

 

What camera were you using?

 

canon 50d

 

most 19" wheels, especially in a staggered setup with fat tires, will destroy the fuel economy of your bluetec...possibly in excess of 2mpg.

I have been trying to find some better looking, lightweight 16" or 17" wheels for our cdi, but all I can seem to find are staggerred 18's and larger.

 

honestly im not to concerned about losing fuel economy

 

Haha I want one. Very nice pictures. 15MegaPixels

 

what you waiting for then?
pics were taken without a flash

 

Nice car! Its so weird to see a speedo with such high numbers. (I realize its calibrated in KPH)... The "Avantgarde" badge... is that located on the piece of Body Side Moulding located on the front fender, forward of the front door? is it badged like that inside the car anywhere? Did the trunk lid come that way or did you de-badge it yourself?

 

thanks
its located in front of the door on the molding. you can see it on the first 2 pics
their is another Avantgarde logo on the shifter
the trunk lid came with E320 and Bluetec badges but i had the dealer remove them when i took delivery of the vehicle.

on a side note, what does "P2" mean in your sig?

 

does anyone know how much the bluetec & E350 engine weigh?
