So a customer brought this in today. I must admit, I'm not too fond of Mercedes Benz cars these days but this car is pretty awesome. I didn't really work on it as much as just take the wheels off and put them on. I did what I needed to do to drive it around the building a few times.

(hopefully my photo is working, let me know if it isn't)

Edit: Black Series, sorry.

That is sweet; I passed a Ftype last night and I've got to say that it is one of those cars that is actually secksy and looks purposeful.

So, it came back today to get some Michelins. I got a few more pics.

diff cooler, little bit different spot that the race cars I have worked on. This one doesn't have fans so it needs to be in the air stream.

In reply to Curmudgeon:

I agree on the Mercedes thing. Not a fan at all, but this car is something else.

In reply to chandlerGTi:

Those F Types are sexy as hell. I have yet to see one in the shop but it's only a matter of time. Some guy dropped his son off in a red one.

If mercedes had the aftermarket BMtroubleyou has I wonder how people would view them. I have to say I almost ran off the road twice trying to keep up with a porsche but a mercedes can handle in the right hands. Thats the deal with some high powered cars built in the US, sure they can put down 400hp but they can't handle or turn without a 2000$ suspension. Mercedes haters keep on hating. I wouldn't own a mercedes built after 1985.
