thanks much 55fanatic for the kind words and for getting this together.

I must say that I'm still envious of the newer V8's better torque curve.. and I now want a meatier sounding exhaust but I can't get myself to do it to the car

i'd also like a stock nav.. and the list goes on but..

oh prof. griff,
check out this site
www.eris-car.de - they have cool stuff for these cars

i just realized that I actually bought my shift knob from
www.performanceproducts.com



Anyways, I have some pictures too

Great meeting everyone! It was fun!

Nice pictures!!

About the may 7th GTG, I say let’s gather up all the representing MB’s first then roll to the Boston GTG place? I suggest the IHOP parking lot since most of you are familiar with it, if you prefer a closer place to Boston then make a suggestion and we’ll see what everyone thinks. If anyone is taking a head count for this event please add me to that list.

By the way, where is the initial GTG place in Boston before heading to the redhook brewery in NH?
