VT, I've been seeing the e63 in your sig, but thought that I had missed the formal intro. In any case, congrats on the new good looking car. 
I've been holding out on posting a formal intro b/c I was waiting to do a professional photo shoot, but then I realized that a lot of professional photographers have been taking pics of the E63 at all the car events I've been to. So, I went to their respective websites and grabbed my pics.

I thought this was a gag at first... Team Poser CFO turning to the dark side 
But hey, if you are going to do it, you have to do it in style... and you've certainly done that
The standard E63, even with its monster engine, is IMHO still a bit "yawn" with its big benz chome grill and comfortable image. But with those mods you've done, its really transformed the look and image of the car. I didn't think I would find myself putting this in writing, but that E63 is simply awesome -- good work!!
But lets not get carried away here -- I'm still supporting ECF and his M5...

Since this is after all a e60 forum, I understand your support for ECF's M5 in our upcoming challange. It's all good.

The E60 body is definitely more distinctive compared to the more "conservative" styling of the E class but there are plenty of aftermarket parts to make that E63 look more menacing. It's just that VT doesn't feel like doing any of it and probably more focused on performance tuning which is understandable.
I don't know if the E60 is better looking than the E63; that's all relative but I do know VT's E63 looks better than most other E55s and E63s I've seen out there. Minor but tasteful mods improved the look a lot.
Alright, that's enough for VT's ego.
xBMWx, thanks for your support!

There isn't any exterior mods available for the E63. No splitter or diffuser. I'm patiently waiting for Vorsteiner to come out with some.
Mang,
I'm telling the e60 looks better than than the w211. Case in point. I use this pic as part of my sig over on mbworld and mymbonline. Goes to show you how much I still love the e60 sytling.

Jesus dude...now we're going to have to hear about this for the rest of our lives. You know, he's probably printing this post out, framing it and hanging it above his headboard.
Speaking of which, does Joe still keep that photo of you at his bed side table?

A picture of me and my M5 is on his mantle for him to worship us as living legends.
