Your B55 is phenomenal... I know you get a lot of grief about the vertical doors but in my opinion they fit the car. I am usually the first person to complain about them, too.
If not anything else you could say "Brabus did it" and people would believe you just because it's not a very well-known package on the SLK.

Thanks. At the time, it was about going "all out" on the mods for the car. I just went nuts. Through the process I became friends with Claus Ettensberger and he kept talking me into this and that. I kind of lost control of the project. I have been more selective with my 997TT. But the B55 is a special car to me. It drives great too - really quick. I have gotten 0-60 mph in 3.9 secs on my VBOX. The car itself is great for the money. With the mods it is a real sleeper. I love naturally aspirated engines and with the 5.5 liter AMG V8 in a pretty light package, the car is a real performer. Add 100 hp in mods and it is quite fun.
What can I say, I like the doors!
