i definetly like the agressive styling and the more squared off lines that date back closer to the older dtms.

damn, you know all the benz colors haha

as stated in the article i would wait for the sport pack with LSD to be offered, probably a "030" type package.

does anyone know if you can simply plug in an E63 ecu to get 507HP? is this motor identical to the other 63's besides some de-tuning to the ecu?

if you read the new issue of winding road it says "The P30 option will have the nineteen-inch wheels, limited-slip differential, larger brakes, Alcantara steering wheel skin, and no speed limiter, thereby allowing an estimated 180-mile-per-hour max."
