8 Maybachs at 310
I was reading the Robb Report this past weekend, and they did a thing on tuner shops. I don't mean Honda, but the top-notch high-dollar tuner shops that tune MBs, BMWs, Jags, etc. They included MB owned AMG, Lorinser, etc.
One of the shops that caters many products for many cars is 310 motorsport. They're in West LA and are very popular with the rap and professional athlete crowd.
Anyhow, the Robb Report mentioned that 310 is already lined up to "tune" 8 seperate Maybachs (presumably for 8 seperate owners).
I asked myself the same question that the Robb Report article author asked, how do you "tune" a car that is already nearly 100% modifiable from the factory?

Obviously you have not watched lifestyles of the Rich and Tasteless!
First you add 26 inch chrome wheelies with 20 series rubber then cover the car with Gucci or LV on the exterior (your choice).
I would however be intrested to see any chip upgrades they are planning on doing for that engine

Examples being B2K - They have a nice SL500, just rims, 18" if i believe, no fancy crap like interior, just plain, real nice!
Kobe - I heard he had a Murciealago (sp?) and all he had was rims.
But look at Busta Rhymes - Flipmode Murcielago (sp?) and he had lime green paint (thats ok) but lime green/chrome rims! UGH!

310?
310 is cool, but they outsource all of their modifications.
They're basically a broker, and all the interior, electronics, etc etc..are outsourced to other places. Kinda scarey actually.
The company that I'd go to(if I had the means) is west coast customs. They're in inglewood and do all of Shaq's cars.
All their stuff is in house.
Anyhow..I dont' think there' s much more to do w/the Maybach's...unless u want ostrich leather or something (but they can do that in the factory now)
