My ride is all stripped.....

Hehe, I thought I had a stroke when Dean (of MBenzNL) tore up my interior to get the AMG sills in, but man did I about freak when I saw my baby today....

Maybe if you keep those parts off (extra weight) you could keep up with my CLS.

Maybe you need to take off some weight from your CLS. Afterall, your car has a higher drag coefficient than ours. Remember, looks can be deceptive.

I'm just passionate about my Benzes, that's all.

Yo Jff, you may wanna wait and make sure they get mine back together, first??

haha. I may have to buy yours off of you if I kill mine and you get the E63.

I couldn't find another loaded black anywhere...

Fun, fun... can't wait to see the smoked lenses... I'm about ready to pull my stickers off and do that too... a little lighter than I have now. Your car is going to look so hot all blacked out in the rear!!!! Our cars are like heaven and hell opposite... your's is the dark angel, mine the silver knight. Be cool to have a group shot someday... make a poster... good & evil beasts

Do those 3M films protect from rocky walls as well?

Car sounds like its going to be one sick vehicle when you are done. Glad you picked RENNtech for your go fast parts. They are truely #1 and you will love the way the car feels when you are done. It wont even seem like a E55 anymore.

If you really want to I would get a Quaife LSD for that car. You will love how it works. I will try and bring down the C32 RENNtech and show you what its like to actually have traction while cornering!

Why not get some evo rotors as well!?!?

Lol, you and I are so like minded. The order of the mods is:

-EVO rotors (by mid-August if they are available)
-Custom Sway Bars (prototypes begin next week) Front and rear with poly U bushings
-Custom Front ball joints left and right for max camber (prototypes next week)
-Quafe diff (whenever available)
-rear Toe arms (with quafe)

-RENNTech stage 3 / maybe 4 depending on $$ and if a GT3 is headed my way (in the fall)

By years end, i hope to be loving the ride. and just doing rims, etc.

p.s. may go back to palomar tomorrow, if you wanna go. may be able to talk a ferrari or something to roll with the E55s.
