Two Torque Monsters...E55/Viper
Modded White E55 - Photoshoot :)

Had a friend take some shots of the car last week...they came out too good not to share! The car has come a long way from when I snagged it in stock format 3 months ago...









Recently she got some Buckhead Import love with a Supercharger Pulley, Belt Wrap Kit, Tune, Split Cooling, and new IC Pump for good measure.

I'm curious as to how the panoramic roof shade works on the W211. I notice that the rear seat passengers can control the shade via the button between the two panes of glass. Does the rear control control both shades or does it control just the rear? In other words, does the rear roof shade work independently of the front one or they work in tandem?

Thanks, I ended-up getting both cars out together on Sunday I also think I saw 4 or 5 E55's at the Cars & Coffee! I know who owns the Dark Grey one with the Black 360 Forged wheels. Which one is yours?

Those are just light buttons. The only switch for the sunshade is near the rearview mirror.

To answer the second question, the shades work in tandem, not individually.

Thanks for the answer! Guess the only MB with individually operating pano roof shades is the S-Class.

Okay. Wasn't trying to bust your chops as I wasn't sure you were serious or not. Your photo is super grainy and dark, upload error?

Anyways, lightened your shot up a bit OP. Gorgeous car. Picked mine up last week and can't wait to start tinkering.
