As you say it would look weird on the S and does on those mods that have installed it.

Even if it's limited at 130, that limiter can be taken off, and 380-something horsepower is more than enough to get to 200 mph.

We offer the decklid spoilers from A_R_T Tuning and Brabus which aren't as aggressive as the Lorinser spoiler. These brands are more subtle and they compliment the original lines with more of a clean look. Kronen Tuning is the Northern California authorized dealer and service center for Brabus and A_R_T Tuning. Contact me if you have any questions. Hope you enjoy them.

To the rest of us, I think Mercedes has the rear looking just nice the way it is. The car looks the best if you are driving behind one, rather than looking at one that is sitting right in front of you. I know this for sure, because I made my wife drive one day while I followed her. I just had to check out the lines. ( of the car that is...)
