1M, F550M, F550B, F40, S600, 365GTC, DBSx2, etc.
Shockingly restrained and good looking for John the crook and his crew. Drop the gaudy hennessey badge and it's a-ok. I even like the wheel choice.

The real question is is it Hoopty Ricer approved?

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
Not too sure if the MCT can handle that much torque...

That is a beautiful blue color. Does anyone know what color that is?

It will be interesting to see how the extra hp and torque improves 1/4 mi times.

Excellent. Ofcourse we will humbly demand your thoughts of the tune.

Where did you get the diffusers

Glad to see another lunar blue AMG owner on the forum (I think there are 4 of us now). I am interested in your review of the tune -- I am runnning Renntech on my M157.

Tune is amazing. It is a torque monster. All the carbon is from Vorsteiner. It is in California now as we displayed it at Barrett Jackson and no doing some magazine stuff. Can't wait until it comes back. We sold a few complete E63's at the show. So we will have a few more on the road shortly.

You need to be careful with Hennesey when it comes to Mercedes. He Does nothing in house and usually acts as a Middle man. Ask him for yourself who does the ECU tuning for you? You'll be Suprised

What is to be careful of? I have commented on other posts that AMS tunes our Mercedes computers. They have a very proven tune and no sense in re-inventing the wheel. AMS does a great job. That being said that is the only car we do not tune in house.
