Sottozero 3 works great

I enjoyed driving about 60 miles on snow and ice today. I was amazed at the level of traction and lack of noise. My Coupe put my previous SUV to shame. It was a ton of fun. The one thing I need is a good wash from all the road stuff.

I'll do that when I get the tail lights wrapped next week (which ought to have been done if I listened to my wiser friend with outstanding taste).

The Sottozero really work well and we'll put several hundred miles on them in two weeks on a trip to Oregon. Driving this car is unreal!

Here's the final stretch:

Thank you, RJC.

I knew the coupe will be great but it's so much more than great. It's really an incredible machine! My wife and I spent 4 hours driving in poor weather - just for the experience with no particular destination in mind - and had a blast. The special foot rest was perfect! Made her ride even more perfect (boots off). We came home relaxed and excited about all the new things we discovered.

We'll be wrapping the tail lights sometime this week and then it'll be done just right.




This is life changing goodness. My wife and I get a smile a mile :-)

I really luv my S-coupe too. When I drive around with all the windows down (which really shows off the pillarless lines) people often comment. That's quite remarkable considering the kinds of machines driving around here. If you don't mind, tell me more about the footrest.

I know what you mean! I think we're supporting chiropractors nationwide with all the unnatural head turning we're generating when people see it.

The foot rest (I'll get a picture tomorrow) was a special gift from a friend that made my wife's ride in this incredible coupe even more special :-)

RJC - I sent a P.M. with information regarding the footrest

Dan - the tail lights give it a very elegant look

The OEM look just does not do it for me

Check your P.M.'s


Thank-You
D.B.

Interesting idea!
Is this a Mercedes footrest? This thing look almost identical to the ones we had in our old BMW 750
