You still have your 2012 Black series. That car MUST be special.
LOL- some cars are the last of their kind-- 6.2 litres of normally aspirated bulging flares/fenders. Not the fastest or best handler anymore but its 6 years old.

It’s a fantastic car with probably one of the best ‘voices’ ever.

How’s the value holding on the car, Vic?

I dont really know but there are hardly any for sale and the last auction shot one at 65k....

My msrp was 118k and 6 years its probably well over 50% of value which is amazing. Lower miles doesnt hurt either of course.

Dont know enough about 'em to declare that with any confidence -it had a wing on it it looked very wide and bodacious. Of course we were neck and neck about 20 mph for a mile or two...

I can see it in your post but I've got a big X on the quoted one.....no idea what the fourm is up to

To comment on the photo, I love the outer exhaust tips, they look really aggressive and meaty but at the same time I intensely dislike how you can see they aren't the real tips

I hear ya... in the real world one isnt going to be squatting so low or be at the same angle in another car to see the separation. This pic does, though, accentuate their new way of attaching tips. Ive become used to it with Benz so much that I never even think about it. Hell, my 2012 C63BS has separated tips
