Hey, we our ideas/plans for the shoot/video didn't work out so we are changing themes and locations. Diego posted the pics above from the AutoCon show here in Miami…
Hey P, thanks for the love. Yes I have and honestly the car is so good with such an amazing suspension (this is a non MBC car) you don't really notice a big difference in ride degradation, if anything the car feels more planted to the ground able to apply that V-8 power more effectively. Over maybe speed bumps and irregular roads you will notice more of a difference.

For this video we wanted to convey a sense of luxury to go with the new S-class so we got with our friends at the MPH Club who granted access to this smaller airport about 30 minutes north of Miami. It also meant buying a bottle of Dom P and we also posted some Padrón Cigars since Jav is an avid Cigar enthusiast and we are exclusive with them. Yes we drank the Dom P and it was great, I think an 03…We wanted to really showcase the car thus a lot of focus on the interior and we had to move into a parking deck at the end so you could see the different ambient lighting. Note we changed the color for you to see the different options.

Wheel Size offset
Mike@vossen can you tell me what the offset and tire size front and rear is on your project 2014 S550? I would like to set mine up the same. Also any work on a lowering module release date? Thanks!

Hi everyone sorry for the late response. In regards to lowering please contact fpasquis@me.com "Cars By Frankie P" and if you are in the Miami area he can help.
Runflats are gone. I hate run flats personally, its like driving on ice. We now use Pirelli P-Zero tires.
Whats up Alex!!
Honestly it rides better to me, not nearly as floaty, cushy and isolated. You get some more road noise and you feel more feedback but I think it is a good thing. You don't lose the luxury ride at all.
Thank you
Sure

We just updated the S550 to our new 22x9 and 22x10.5 Silver Polish VFS-2 wheels. These feature our new flow forming technology for a lighter and stronger wheel without sacrificing our design integrity.
Personally I think these wheels are made for Mercedes and they are hub-centric.

Those CVT's looked so good, I had to get them. Thanks for the video, otherwise I wouldn't have been persuaded to add CVT's! Now I wish I got 22" but didn't really want to pay extra on insurance and everyone was telling me it would have an effect on the ride quality.
