It would be nice if you updated your website to show more of the other models.

I'll confirm, but I believe we have every Sprint Booster model available listed on the site already. There is a question about the 09 E63, but that's it, I think...

Hi Folks -

Thanks to all of you who've gotten your orders in already - we are thrilled with the support we're receiving from MBWorld!

If you are on the list and have not ordered, please feel free to do so using coupon code MBgroupbuy. This will set you up with our full group buy discount.

Reminders -

1. Pricing is private, please PM or email for the group buy rate.
2. If you put your name on the list, please include your car's year/model.

Also, you will find that we've updated the 'Mercedes All' unit listing on our website. It now includes the fully compatible '09 E63, which was omitted from the description previously.

Regarding compatibility, there are only two issues right now:

1. The 2010+ W212 E63 AMG. There is no compatibility with this yet.
2. The 2010+ W212 550. We're waiting for confirmation from the manufacturer. Please feel free to add your name to the list to secure the price while we wait to find out.

Beyond that, there should be no incompatible models. Please feel free to order at your earliest convenience - units are shipping on demand.

Thanks again for all your support!

Ken

Not that I'm aware of...

Anyone in the Toronto area with a 550 who can let Sprint Booster test the install?

Thanks! I know we're definitely not able to discount below the group buy price right now, so don't be afraid that you missed out.

Thanks so much for your order - and service!

IMPORTANT UPDATE for W212 E550 Owners:

We've been told by Sprint Booster that we should consider the W212 E550 incompatible with the current units. They will not fit these cars.

I'm very sorry to pass on this disappointing news. We'll be updating our website to note the omission of the W212 E550.

Thanks so much for your understanding and support.

Ken

Go to their site, and apply coupon code mbgroupbuy while it is in your cart. That will tell you the price. It's a good price.

I placed my order for the group buy - 2008 Lexus GS460

C63
Guys look at the C55 - C63 and make an informed buy. Beware no returns or refunds and they're product as they say allways works perfect.

In my opinion it is worthless!!! Look at the treads listed above. Try to get help when it goes wrong

I don't know about this group buy, but if you pay full MSRP and buy direct for $329.99, you can return it no questions asked within 30 days.

There is a >20 page debate on this on the Lexus forum. Seems the hard core guys like the ISF drivers say that you can achieve the same result with more pedal effort, and therefore it is useless. Most people say that having a more linear pedal response significantly improves driving enjoyment.

In the Lexus case there is no throttle lag, but the non linear pedal programming makes it feel like there is. So this product can solve that.

less effort to go faster = more enjoyment.
no more soft pedal! hard to drive like a grandma your forced to put down more acceleration pedal, its challenging to accelerate slow. I like that no one should be allowed to drive my car like a grocery getter!

I don't care that the fact you may be able to achieve the same pushing the throttle more, im lazy. Mercedes pedal feels too soft and makes the car feel heavy, a touchy pedal makes the car feel light. And im fine with that misinterpretation.

I see it like this if i can twist a nipple 25% and get a reaction and another girl 100% to same effect. Id go with girl #1 cause shes easy and funner… im trying to make life easier not harder.

oh and...Less throttle lag and quicker downshift was just a bonus.
