BYE BYE E55 HELLO C2

Wsup guys, as most of you know the lease on my E55 was up , I recently picked up a 2009 Carrera cab... Not as fast as the E55, but deffinatley A LOT funner to drive IMO...As of now, Ive tinted the windows 20% all around, Had the rear carrera badge switched to Matte Black , changed the porsche hood emblem to Black , Made the OEM exhaust tips Matte Black, and the Yellow Brakes done by HMS ....Enjoy

Im very happy with my choice, My stables got another AMG In it for me to drive, Still got the S63, For anybody thats ever owned a porsche they know what im talking about when I say its lots of fun to drive, I feel that the sporty drive of an AMG and a Porsche are not Comparable

Aren't those OEM wheels referred to as "lobster claws". That would kinda go along with Rock's reference to something fishy smelling but edible. Do you think Porsche had a joker in their mids while doing this?

Congrats on the new car. It might not be as fast in a straight as the E55, but God knows the E55 can't corner like the Pcar.

And the Pcar is a lot MORE FUN to drive.

BTW: NEVER listen to what anyone else says about your car, the only thing that matters is that it makes you happy. If what you like is comfort, get an S class, if you want a driver's car, get a Porsche. Just make sure that it's gonna make you happy everytime you turn it on
