Some new car ****

Here are some fresh pics i took of car after a good clean. Started raining almost immediately and had to move inside hence pics could be better (they are seem unusually grainy, dont know why):

The collection photographed together for the first time!





Vents in the rear wheel arches - of no practical purpose. Very happy with cf rear spoiler...like the fins which are bold but not too over the top, at least in my opinion. The central red light is a working brake light ala' F1. The other red strips are just reflectors, reminiscent of the face-lifted ML63 bumper






It protudes a bit but gives a nice aggressive profile



Reasonable shot of the 16inch Brembo GT front brakes, HRE 22"s make the disks appear small, but jeez they can bring things to a halt pretty well! Notice the small vent in the side of the front bumper, again pretty much aesthetic only



The front cf spoiler is just beautiful, really gives the front bumper an aggressive look vs the stock setup. The stock bumper from the side view, curves inwards at the bottom rather than juts outwards like the Expression bumper. You can also the white LEDs which also work as turning indicators



The big fat lip on the rear HREs compliment the bumper's aggressiveness just nicely i reckon





Here is the overall look from the front and side





Here are some sound clips of the truly sonorous exhaust wrought by Vath and Mille Miglia!

Wow that sounds great. Is it drony inside the car though? Whats it like on the freeway?

I quite like the AMG sound but maybe a tiny bit louder would be good.
