I drive a E55T, SLK55 and 65 Mustang Conv.
2 E55T in the same shop!

Hi all,
What are the chances of this. Wolf took my car today to Al & Ed's autosound in Sherman Oaks to ask about a radar detector. When he gets there they have a silver E55T they are working on. Turns out it belongs to the singer Seal and as soon as they finish putting in a Lorrsensor ( I know that's spelled wrong) steering wheel and something like an XK8 radar they are taking it to Rentech to get itchipped as that'll add another 50hp they said.

I'm just repeating what THEY told Wolf. Have no idea if it's true or not or what else may be being done to his car.

Lucky for me I let Wolf keep the ***** in the family then, huh? If I mod the car at all it'll be with a visit to Brabus and would likely all be visual not for speed. Wolf is the speed demon in the family

I didn't know that RENNtech chips would fit that X5 of yours. Learn something new every day. :p

This is so funny! Just today a friend of mine was telling me how she was going into her house the other day when a Silver E55T pulled into her community. Turns out Seal just moved in next door to her and it was him driving the car. She didn't mention a Lorinser kit though (she knows her Benz's) so I guess he haden't gotten it installed.
