Car finally arrived
My car finally arrived Saturday. I never got to see the car before buying it with the magno selenite grey with beige interior. I have to say though I’m very very happy. The beige interior looks gorgeous. This car is beautiful and I’m extremely happy that I canceled my M5 order.

Congrats, Tony!
And you're right, what a beautiful color combo--I really like the light interior!
+1 with Vic--mods? I'd suggest you start with a lowering module (the one from eBay) so she doesn't look like she's tip-toeing along.

Yes, I already ordered the lowering module from eBay and spacers from supreme power should be here this week. I’m wondering if I should break the car and let everything settle before installing. I will probably do wheels down the road after I have rocked the stocks with spacers. I plan to have all the chrome emblems either plasti dipped or painted black. I plan to have the door handles front grill and back strip of chrome all wrapped black. Then I will probably have my friend Lenny Wu from LWS tuning tune the car( he used to be renntechs tuner). I’m still on the fence about doing downpipe and blow off valve. I know the blow off valve is strictly for sound but can’t decide if it’s to ricey for a 130k Mercedes.

Nice! So far the magno has been really easy to care for. Also nice that it doesn't show light road grime so much after the little bit of what passes for rain around here.
The beige looks really nice in combination with the grey.

I know that "break in" from an engine standpoint is an arguable topic so Ill digress here. But in regards to the spacer and lowering mods; you can and should do that right away as that is aesthetic in nature. The car in reality is ready to be ripped but thats your car. But lower it for sure and the spacers will look great once you do. Did Supreme give you the Vic package? LOL.

You are mighty short and young to have a drivers license.
Looks great. Enjoy in good health.

Yes that was what I was alluding to outside of when you asked "I’m wondering if I should break the car and let everything settle before installing."

Congrats on your new whip! Sweet color combo. All business outside and very elegant inside...
The carbon fibre packages provide a nice accent to the matte paint. I wonder through why MB excluded the black trim piece (front grill/air intakes).
