E55 looks great man.....
What can you tell me more about your Red Flag car?
I cant believe they are still using that platform, which is a good thing. I loved that car. What's the engine? If i ever sell my E55, i would totally buy a old GS430 and do a 2JZ NA-T/V160 6 speed Swap with a big single turbo and the little drink tray above the passenger glove box
Any more pics? inside maybe?

Thank you all for the kind compliments, here are more pics for the "Red Flag"




I custom made this wood steering wheel badge for a more classic look

rear seat control panel

it uses a 3.0L v6 toyota 3GR engine and toyota 6 speed trans, at the high end model it also got the 4.3L V8 3uz-fe engine. This is more like a luxury car, and does not have much sport characteristic.

thank you, the car scene here is getting better and better, we have an AMG club with over 100 members now. And the auto modification is getting popular here.

Thank you. I did not find a w211 with the same wood in China, they all come with the dark gray wood.

Thank you. I am happy with the distronic mod, and it works fine.

Yes, I think CV3 is more concave and looks aggressive, it flows better with my exterior. CV1 has a luxury look, i need some changes to flow with it.

Thanks for the suggestion, now i want both, haha.

I know this is an old thread...but I've pushed the pix as far as I can, and I can't tell what brand and size of tires you have...it looks great.
