Ok, my SL have already the 20" rims and maybe when I keep the E, I will buy the rims also for the E 55. The body style is not nicer as the AMG body style in my opinion. And that K8 dus not give that much more power for that money!
The E55 goes 308 km/h now (191,38 mls) relimited, why should I need a K8?

That looks nice! Seems you invested into the car for the longhaul!
Is the whole downside of the ****pit in leather or just the middle?

I have let it don direct from Brabus in Bottrop (Germany).
Did you guys know that the doors (including the armrest) are been made from artificial leather in the stock E55?
Brabus replaced it now for real leather!

And when I say that the K8 is not the value for money for me, it would not say that you have to compare me with a replica buyer!!!!!

Now Im enjoy driving the car even more!

The interior looks awesome. I have one question, though: What happens when the passenger airbag would go off?

There is the stitching for!
Brabus is very careful about the safety, that's the reason why they don't want to chance the middle of the steeringwheel. You can see that that part is still original. Just because of the airbag!

I brought my complete car to Brabus, I'm not sure or they do it on a other way!

Good to know that Brabus does nice interior work, and at prices that could be worse. Personally, I would have gone for stiched leather on the dash, saving the alcantara for the hat shelf out back and the headliner. Suede on the dash looks too Italian to me. But each to his own .....
Congrats on a nice ride.
