1990 Plymouth Sundance. it's embarassing
pimp factor

Okay, this is a serious question. I'm going to spend about 21,000 dollars on a nice Benz. What would be the absolute best way to distribute that cash to have a car that would turn every head within a 500 meter radius?

I was thinking something like this.
1995 E420
19" AMG Monoblocks
4 Kilowatt MTX audio system
etc etc.

That would be a sweet ride huh

Nobody turns a head when they see me in my CLK either.

However driving a Vette, - that is something else.

Yes because when driving a Vette people look because they wonder what idiot would pay that much for a hunk of fiber glass and plastic. ANY Benz turns heads, and the ones that it does not are only jealous.:p :p :p

personally for the pimp factor.. i would change the stock rims from the car... the wheels seem to make a big difference.. that's just my 2 cents.....

wheels definately add to pimp factor

That is the easiest and most visible pimp factor item. Next is probably tinting, depending on what your state allows. Nothing is pimped out than a car with nice rims that you cant see inside. That E looks nice ... too bad about the flood damage.

tint does make a huge difference in a car too...

speaking of flood damage...if they have put an engine and stuff in it.. what would be the other dangers in buying a car like this...just wondering....
