I like the current CLK more than 911.

The SL doesn't look bad but the E, S, and the oldschool one don't look that "classy," and I'm pretty sure that's the look the designer was going for. That front lip protrudes too much and those fogs are fucking ugly.

Back to the thread... Porsche.

The wheels on that old CLK look too small. I would have to upgrade to the current bodystle before throwing rims on such a dated design. Most of the other Benz pics are very well done IMO.

Those bodykits on the Benz's look terrible. They don't even look like they belong on those cars, I think that they make them look worse IMO. You need something much more subtle if you want to put a kit on a Benz, I love the Lorinser Packages, just as long as you don't go overboard.

The wheels on the CLK look real good, LM5's, my dad's got a set on his S430, they look really nice

As for the Porsche (Nothing can compare)

I thought that Lou had the HRE's and an exhaust on his Benz? I could be wrong, however. But I do know that one pictured has Lorinser LM5's and a stock exhaust.

I thought Lou got a different exhaust as he was providing sound clips and complaining about people thinking it sounded bad? Maybe he got hauled off to jail for taking pics of NYC police.

Oh maybe your right cuz i do remember him doing a thread where he showed a 430 going down a stretch of road. I always thought that wasn't his.

"right click, properties" OWNS don't it

While I'm not a big fan of the 996, I do like it better then the MB 430.

Well I think the whole purpose of this thread is.....Lou is plotting the purchase of a porsche 911 and knowing him and his "fake ass wannabe" style it will probably be either a salvaged titled high mileage shitbox or one of those 1978's with the all fiberglass 996 body's! Keep up thefrontin loulou we are all impressed
