New Owner

Hey guys,
I just took delivery of my 05' S500 4Matic. Black with the Java Interior and Appearence Package. I was wondering if there is anything that you guys would recommend i modify on the car immediatley?

I was thinking in particualr a good tint and perhaps an ipod.

Thanks

Snap on a set of 20's, get a kit, and get some ice and you're pretty much done.
