Beautiful trio of cars. The wheels on the SL are not for me either, but wheels are such a personal thing. Loving the cars though.

Is it just the lighting, or does the CLS have green brake calipers?

I am also on MBworld

Yes, good catch, My brother painted his brake calipers candy green, and also pinstriped them. He painted the Hubs gold

Heres a picture

Hi can you please tell me your impression on the powerchip after installation and driving your ML and how much was it?

Powerchip is by far the best bang for the buck on the 63 motors.
The chip made an incredible difference. I would recommend this as a must have for a 63
Here is my before and after dyno:



The price for the 63s is 1,990 USD and you can get them directly from me if you want. If interested, send me a PM.

BTW.... this car screams now.

maybe if it the wheels on the SL weren't chrome then i would be over that car like blinky on a light. I Think Radenergie (?) wheels look the best on that car. but that's just my opinion and it doesn't cost a dime.

Sweet collection in the family.

I've long despised those Lowenharts, but that was a hell of a deal. Shoulda flipped them.

Thats the good thing about Lowenharts, never too late to flip em.
The lease is up on the SL in may, so my brother and I are contemplating what to get him next. Advice would be appreciated.
