MBenzNL installs
Just had Steve (MBenzNL) back to Toronto where i got some more "goodies" added (will post pics later). On this trip he installed the factory rear monitor , euro anti-blind spot mirrors , and the infamous AMG Manufactur leather airbag. The best part however is when a group of us rented a karting track as we all wanted to see Steve's karting skills. I'm sure i speak for everyone when i say that he is a MENACE on a karting track 
Thanks for the warning Wanda 
As "reckless" as he was he managed to post the fastest time and take 1st place amongst some still competition, can't wait when Steve gets his own 55 !! To finish it off we managed to surprise the #$%@ out of a Murcielago on the ride home

I have to say it was a fun time! Bad timing for me since all my goodies couldnt be installed due to car being stuck at the dealership.. 
We did get our butts handed to us on the karting track though... I dont know what Steve does to those things to make them go so fast, but he can drive! Damn those diesel drivers!!
Steve: Look forward to having you back in Toronto so we can go for a rematch..
John: Let's go and get some seat time before he comes back!!!
BTW, those of you who haven't had the pleasure of seeing John's car in person; it's a beauty and has almost all the MB available options (thanks to Steve) and some not-so-available options.
P.S-> John... One of those airbags is going on my car!!!

Nothing MB related (sorry)
I knew it! Steve would be fast on the karting track. 
I don't know how he does it, either, but I have this funny feeling that he hardly uses his breaks?!? 
Steve posted a thread about the Lamborghini on the Dutch MB forums. Too bad he didn't have any pics to go with it, but I sure would have wanted to see the guy's face.
Victor, I am sure we can get you (some of) your parts during Steve's next Toronto visit. I can only hope that the dealer can figure out the problems of your car. Soon!

yes, i heard about that karting experience also.. something about someone going the wrong way on the track. Steve did not only bump people into the barriers, he completely buried them 1/2 way through them. by the end he modified the entire track

ow - and DIESELDRIVERS rule! It becomes more and more obvious to me why some people need (modified) E55s to "feel" fast on the road
.The murcielago experience was freaking great John - too bad we didn't have that on camera.

Guys, guys... what an impatience! 
@ Christian: I don't know when Steve will be going back to the East Coast again... we tried to set up a trip to the East Coast in September, but due to several (non related) issues it didn't really work out. Do you want me to notify you when Steve will be out there again?
@ L8Apex: ... don't know. Steve has just returned to the Netherlands from his most recent US trip. He usually goes to the USA every 2-3 months, but I am not sure if he will actually go to CA before the end of this year. He also needs to go to Korea soon.
If you are interested in getting some mods installed, just send us an email.
@ Justin: Steve has been in Seattle / Vancouver once (last year)... not sure if he will be going there again any time soon. But if we can get some business in your area, I am pretty sure that I can convince my brother to go out there again. ... just send us an email with the goodies you are considering to get.
