Coupe has arrived
(moving from the sedan forum)
It took a while for the car to arrive, four moths from the date of the order to be precise. Delivery was not without the drama either as first attempt last Thursday had failed when dealership called and informed that one of the lighting module failed diagnostics. That call happened literally as I was driving to pick it up. As it turned out, loose connector was the reason and the new module replacement they shipped from California will stay with the dealership just in case Nevertheless, car was picked up last Saturday.
It's nice to be back with six hundred horses though I will have to pace myself for the next thousand miles. MB interface is a bit strange and will be something to get used to. Sound needs tuning, I believe there was an app for the Burmester 3d system. Seat is awesome, took me awhile to recognize why I was uncomfortable and pulling back the seating pad solved it (I used to have it fully extended on BMW without impact to the overall position and in MB and also adjust overall seating support).
Yesterday was a nice day to take couple of snapshots, enjoy!

Among regular cars nothing comes close interior and comfort wise.

Just missed you at Eastside
Igor,
Dorian and I just missed you and your new beautiful coupe at East side auto today. I picked up Dori after Ben and Joey finished doing their magic.
Ben and Joey at Eastside Auto Salon giving Dorian love and some magic ;-)
Once you are done with Hugo, and go back to Eastside, you will love your coupe even more when they are done with yours (have a name yet?)

I’m not going with Hugo, I decided to go with Systems Unlimited and get Radenso + ALP. It’s off to Ben once electronics are done.

Hope to finally meet you and look forward to having you enjoy your beauty. BTW don't forget that CCBs also have break in process. DB sent it to me. I'll find and send you a PM with it.
Best, Dan

I have been waiting for a friend to return from Europe
with a radar update -
He said last fall he got ticketed twice for speeding while
using Escorts top unit and began to question if the install
was done correctly -
He decided to go with this:
https://radenso.com/products/radenso-rc-m
He feels that he gets a faster response from a greater distance
than he was getting with the Escort and has not had a ticket
since it's install the end of October -
That being said no one has pushed the Escort unit as hard as Dan
and he can share his stories of his Escort saves -
While these are the top two units on the market the Radenso
unit is the newest of the two -
I am going to recommend the Radenso unit to Dan when his
new Coupe arrives -
If you have any other questions just ask this forum group
as this sub-forum has extremely smart / sharp members
Check your P.M.'s -
Thank-You
D.B.

Got the first batch of changes done with detection and countermeasures in place
All work done by Charles and Systems Unlimited. Really like how the front sensors are integrated, not as excited about the rears but it is what it is with the S63 bumper set up.
Rears are on top of a license plate and are more visible compared to fronts
Both control units are in neatly tucked on a passenger side
The remote is in place of the ashtray
I went with 2 channel BlackVue setup with the extra battery installed next to the main car battery. BlackVue is thirsty draining the extra battery by 50% overnight, I wish they had geo fencing disabling it once in the garage.
Now to the next stop to get PPF and ceramic coating.
