Mod friendly dealerships in S. Florida?
Anyone know any Mod friendly dealerships in S. Florida? Been reading alot about warranty DQs for even minor mods, and it's got me kinda paranoid now...

Thanks

There are no mod friendly dealers once you have a problem that can be blamed on anything you've added or modified, trust me. You play with MB's, you takes your chances.

Thanks for the reply, and your certainly right. It's a shame though really. Getting a warranty voided from a totally unrelated mod is pretty pathetic. Sure, it's in the paper work we sign but geez...

I don't want to start another thread but I live in Coral Springs and I've been trying to find a reputable tuning house that I can work with in South Florida. Today I visited Tuners Mall and although they specialized primarily in Porsche, Audi and VW, the owner I spoke to also mentioned that they worked on a few Mercedes as well. Does anyone have any experience with them? If not, is there somewhere else I can go check and ask around?

If there are no mod-friendly Dealers in SoFla, how about quality non-dealer shops to make the mods?

FWIW, I found Delray MBZ to be very unhelpful when I was looking for a car. - Oh yes - I had problems with the body shop when the Pompano MBZ was Autohaus. However, I think the new ownership (Autonation) has changed that situation.

Their service department was very good to me. I was looking at an 05 E55 that they had there. They wouldn't come off the price at all and it is still sitting there after 4 months.
