The Lorinser kits have become gaudy as of late. The front bumper seems ok, the fender vents the lower rocker rear bumper most my aversion is the fender vents.

Its something how MBZ tail lights are looking more and more like the Japanese imports.

Nice show car but too gauddy for everyday driving.

I'd buy it then sell it and buy a W124 E500 and a W210.

I spoke to the owner of this car at a gas station next to my house. The work is done by 310 motoring and its not just body work either. The car sounds absolutely wild.

I wouldn't touch the first pic with a ten foot pole. You might as well take of the Mercedes badge.

I'm not that crazy about the Forgiato wheel line. They have 2 models I would consider but not either of these. I've seen them in person many times and I'm not feeling them. As for the kit, it's a little extreme but at least it's on a coupe instead of a sedan. I can deal with it. A better set of wheels and we're ready to go.

Just give me a stock CL63. I hate aftermarket junks.

I actually like the style of the new CL, I've never been a fan of Lorinser products. Makes the car look cheap sorry to say. On the other hand Brabus and Wald...their designs are a lot more appealing and convey a lot more class.

I would drive it.

I think it's one of the better looking cars coming out of Germany these days.
