2003 S500 4Matic
2003 S500

Hey guys this is my first time posting on this site as I love it now since I just bought a 2003 S500 4Matic for a great deal... it has 35k miles on it not bad i just got a great deal on it i guess and i love it so far... it drives so well and smooth...

I am posting here to get some suggestions on what to do to my car as in lighting,sound , paint job etc....








^^^ These are pics of my new car

I would love to get some feedback on the car and some suggestions on what lights I should get for it... where to get low profile tires.. some good rims... what color to get it painted... improve the sound system a little as it already is very good... thanks and give me some feedback on it...

hmm ok then S55 exhaust, or equivelent, 20" wheels I personally like HRE's Staggered of course, Auto Coture lip kit, Leave the car silver theres plently of things you can do to enhance the color. Hid upgrade, Brake upgrade, Tint, Supercharger, system I would do a upgrade that has minimal intrusion into the interior, no tv screens that is played and IMO it detracts from the beauty of the car. color matching of some body parts.

wow thats alot of suggestions and i am looking into the rims and exhaust currently before i do any other mod and i am leaving the paint as is for now... and yea hid upgrade .. brake upgrade and tint and likely to supercharge it too but any place i can get those done i am kinda new at modding cars so i don't know much places but i'm not adding tv screens and i was thinking of replacing the nav system in the car because it is cd only not dvd to the new nav system in benz... and thanks for the suggestions.

unlimited budget?

put this beautiful car in the garage and try to forget changing chassis colour.it will devalue the car faster than a head on collision.keep it factory!.MB has allready done the mods for you,just look at the car and compare it to anything in it's class world wide.let it pamper you in silence,comfort and luxury.when you feel the need for speed and modification than get yourself a 10 year old turbo carrera and spend mad amounts of cash fixing it up,there isnt gonna be much that will keep up with a wildly modified carrera.just my opinion!
