Thanks...that's a compliment with the caliber of cars I've seen on here. I'm still working on severely upgrading the Levinson (not that its not one of the best OEM systems Ive heard)....Should be done after CES and I will post some more pics.

Very nice. I like the colormatched centers, they really flow well with the overall look of the car.

The datasystems controller currently has 3 of my fav presets

Setting (4) Daily driving ...smooth like factory

Setting (5) More aggressive ...tires closer to fender look

Settin (L) or super low mode is for show where all air is basically out of the air ride suspension.

To be honest...I drive it on (4) 95% of the time and everyone compliments on how nice it drives....
