i didnt mind driving it to be honest - the V8 was a great lil engine! One of the very few coupe/convertibles that has a lot of room up the front!

The E60 is def. a sharper car on the bends...>!

My Ride: carbonized MB coupe
Default

he is connected when he says he will buy something, and off when we ask him to get bigger wheels,

saying that Capt, all those Mickey Mouse mods must have made your car much heavier and slower.
But i think your latest white sway bar things are quite cool, is that the old Arqray welded on???

how does it compare to the old daddy CL?

never ever compare a Lexus to a BMW.
they are no way near up to BMW standard in performance or handling.
the only brand right now is only Audi.
as you know Lexus and MB are the opersit to BMW and Audi for the market.
if you like driving BMW and Audi
if you like a smooth quite home MB and Lexus

you must try my car now
I 100% garantee that the car is not slower it is faster than before.
all the Mickey Mouse mods are to make the car safer and faster at the same time
after the bars I can go round corner with ease at 90+ and before it was only 70+

the Arqray is welded on which is alot better than before

they are selling well much better than the 5GT
I was at the show last week and there were ppl queing up to buy the thing and sitting in it.
I think this car will do much better than the E60 for the sale numbers.
I found out that the F10 is cheaper than the E60 just like the MB e class cool

Looks welded on. Silver head. If like general installation. It's might save the money thus no need back to rainbow again.
