Thanks Chad, Z and 99bimmer,
So far the only other thing i would do is to put a K&N air filter and upgrade to osram/phillips xenon gas system.
Z: I was reading and i found out that your car orginally cost $139,000.00!!
And a 30 year mortgage on it would be somewhere around $900.00 .. wow
It has a sweet conservative dark blue color. Does rice boys try to race you when your on highway??

Yeah, the original sticker was $135K - add gas guzzler, luxury and sales taxes and you had to stroke about a $150K check to get one of these new. I bought mine last fall with 33K miles on it for more than $100K less than that.
I find almost noone knows about these cars - they're pretty understated and unless they notice the "V12" badge on the side they have no idea it can perform. Even the dealer keeps calling my car either an SL or a CLK!
The car is so heavy that even with 389 horses it can't take smaller cars off the line (0 to 60 in about 6.3), but it really shines at highway speeds - it can go from 70 to 110 in blink of an eye and you don't even notice unless you check the speedometer.
No rice burner races yet. Even if they don't know much about my car, they know that even with their bees-in-a-can sounding exhausts, 20 inch wheels with rubber band tires and a 150 horse 4-banger they can't beat much of anything. Now if I ever pull up next to a turbo Supra - that'll be another story!
