Hi Guys,

I wanted to share my E500.  I just added on a full AMG exterior package and wheels.

Last time posted pics of my cars was before the modding began (you can do a search).

Keep in mind I've moved back to the states, so the car is a LHD.  My plate is a giveaway as to where I am living now - you will notice it is different in the before and after pictures, just like in Malaysia, if you pay extra, you can purchase a specialized plate with the number 1 in the front instead of number 5.
So here are some before and after pics - keep in mind I wanted to keep in conservative and in the original spirit of the manufacturer.

Interior - This is the "Sport" package interior with Black Birdseye Maple Wood, White Dash Gauges and Aluminum Shifknob and Trim
The interior colour is called "Ash"



Here are the details:

W211 Mercedes-Benz E500 Sport
5000cc 24-valve V8

AMG E55 Front and Rear Bumper, Skirting, and Grilles
AMG Foglights
AMG 19" Style VI Wheels 
AMG Sport Pedals
AMG E63 Rear Spoiler   
Airmatic DC 2" Lowering 
Huper Optik Nano-Ceramic Tint 
K&N Intake Filter

Will post pictures and maybe a video after I install the modified exhaust system, ECU reprogram, and underdrive crank pulleys.
A fast car, but not as fast as some of the others cars I've driven.

Okay?

Brabus is an aftermarket tuning company for Mercedes - they make parts only, they do not make the car.  Similar to AMG, which is a division of Mercedes, but also only makes parts.

Daimler-Chrysler (now called Mercedes-Benz) is the company that manufacturers the Mercedes and SMART line of cars and trucks.

Whatup guys, I'm back to share again.

Just modified the exhaust and added the AMG tips - you can scroll up on this page to view the pics of the car.
Here's some videos, she sounds great.  Good V8 growl.
