It'd cost a lot more than 75K--you'd have to upgrade your house too!

Lorinser body kits are absolutely tasteless nasty garbage.
Why anyone would pass on the AMG package to then add that ugly crap for almost $10k or so is beyond me.

That's WAY overpriced with the amount of miles it has! I'd rather get this one on Autotrader that's a lot cheaper and has a little below average miles on it...

Burn some dust here
I wouldn't buy it.
Plus, in my opinion, mods like that do not add any monetary value to the car. If someone wants to pay extra for it, so be it.....but I sure as hell wouldn't.

If you could afford a Mercedes like that, what are you doing with a TL in the first place? I'd go out and buy a Barolo Red CLS500 if I were you. I don't trust Mercedes at some point, and that some point would be after 60k miles.
My friend has an '01 CLK430 with 70k miles and it honestly looks like it's on its way out. It's a shame.

The up-keep on a MB V12 is crazy expensive.
And yes, those are spinners complete with faux wooden panels.
MB CL is probably my favorite car out right now, but I'd pass on this

That doesn't make sense to me. You want to jump $40,000 to a used Mercedes? Why not buy something new at $50,000 and use the extra $25,000 to modify it to your delight?

IMHO: it's not worth it.
a car that I think that looks hot as hell is the Benz CLS500. It's about 65 grand for a "stripper." the Lexus has about 75 mre hp.
Another option is the BMW 550I and a base model runs 58 grand. it has 20 hp less than the new Lexus but I rode in one once and for a sedan it scoots.
last option I'd look at I don't know if you're too crazy about Jaguar(since it's owned by Ford) S Type R it has 10 more hp than the Lexus and goes for 64 grand.
Now my b*tch about Lexus. is it seems like their so much electronic crap on it. like when you wanna "push it hard" through a corner things start dinging. It's like riding with an invisible grandma. You wanna floor it but you know if you do she's gonna raise hell.
