If I remember correctly, Mercedes-Benz offered an "F1 Limited Edition" Package on the CL55 (pre-blower model) and they only made 55 of them. And yes, I ceramic brakes (8-piston) were standard.

Here's a link...

Linh I would go the opposite route... take the grille and paint it body color. Its now a dark gray with a chrome front... try the whole thing body color... and also the grilles down under, try silver on them.... the Kleemann CL has this if you look at it, it looks good. Kleemann also does that to the SL grille, its body color.... and it looks good. I was thinking of doing it. But I prefer you do it first in case it looks like ***.... hehehe :p
