I work for Benz, and I just think the roll bar up, and a RennTech duck-lip spoiler just makes the car looked finished.

Roll bar down. It looks so much cleaner without a big...thing behind the seats.

Still turning the screws. The prev S class really took a hit when the new ones came out. $93k MSRP for it in 2005 and they want to give me $40k for it. With 19k miles on it, we are looking at $2.79 a mile! It might be more satisfying to roll it off a cliff.

I like it up but it really blocks your visibility, so we roll with it down.
