thanks for the write up!! Pinkguhk

Spot one in the Harbour city car park last saturday.....to be honest, you only will get a new c-class if you take your family into consideration (Compared with 3-series) ,cos it has better ride and a little bit more comfy (smooth gearbox)......but for those who love cars (Like us)........There is no reason to buy M-Benz for the driving experience.

I like MB. Especially the CLS, M Class and S class.

But the new GL class, C class and CL is just bleh.

I'd buy the CLK63 black series in a heart beat, but not worth it.

HiPinguhk, appreciate the contribution you have done to the forum,
yep have fitted an Arqray from Super Gt, you can see the photos.
It sounds like V8 1-2000, then a rumble 2000-3800 and deep scream 3800r+
I fitted a K&N panel as well.
Power gains - don't know, sounds fast and very aggressive, but the movement from 3000-6000 is much quicker than before.

I might add the AC Tips, they are expensive at 1680 though, and as my arqray is 70mm+ don't know if it will fit,
are you AC alloys, original?

to the forum!!

What model have you got?? And nice exhaust as well, how much did you pay for??
I got a Sebring exhaust for my E60, sounds nice but too loud for a quiet saloon in my opinion.

I dun think the ACS tips can fit in your arqray exhaust...cos urs look BIG...

Hope you enjoy the forum!!

Cheers
Keith
