Finally my car will be a beast, 481 hp ;)

Got myself a new ride, comes in May. Might still keep the TL, we'll see.


I ordered the coupe, with the performance package, the 19's and premium package in Canada. Car will have 481 hp, L.S.D and some other performance goodies. I got the same color combo as the one pictured. It took 1 test drive to be hooked. I'm so excited and I cannot believe it's finally going to happen.

thanks guys, plan is to get a double x pipe set up done soon. And maybe headers and a tune over the winter. We'll see how it sounds after being broken in. The wait is painful!

That grille is similar to some of the big(ger) boy AMG cars... looks awesome. Interior is sick as well. The wife's E-class has the upgraded two-tone interior, and it's just pimp in person.

Congrats on the purchase and definitely upload a video when you get it

thank you, from someone with an m5 (amazing sounding)

I'm no baller, just smart saving. Put aside some money yearly, enough to cover half the car. And use the 2.9% financing they provide and re invest my money in real estate (my field).

Started saving for next car too. In 5 years well see what I end up with

Holy smokes, that's gorgeous, really love the coupe. One thing you'll never get over is the exhaust, it'll still make you laugh everytime you fire her on a cold winter morning. You'll also love the seats, easily the best I've ever in experienced.

My old 09.



Cheers and drive safe

Smart man!! Glad to read you're not car poor. You have your money working for you on one end, and you're getting to thoroughly enjoy it on the other. Have fun!!

Congrats, I spec'd out this car on a whim and honestly it's a really competitive value.

Hope you have many fun years with the car.

an xpipe to replace secondary cats maybe 10-15 whp. But long tube headers + tune should give a nice bump in power. I won't lie, the 481hp should be good enough lol
