265.5kW and manual transmission - what a great combination!

Unless you are a clutch

Thanks adam. I've found a place near where I live that does opti-coat (hand application for $400+ and spray-gun 2 coats fror $500+).

Tinting wise, I'm still unsure who to go with, what film/products to go for. There seems to be a lot more varieties out there with different tint shops promoting diff products.

I'm looking at getting opti-coat and also in Sydney, can I ask where you have seen it for that price and did you have to ask for discount?

This is from Car Detailing Studio Sydney North Shore | Make Your Car Beautiful – 1300 739 489 based in Lane Cove. Heard really good things about them and I did not have to ask for a discount. Frank (whom I believe is the owner) seems to be very helpful, answering my emails on Saturday/Sunday nights and offered to let me use his space to get my window tinting done if I am using a mobile tinter.

Already have my mind set to go with them.

As a side note, Mercedes-Benz hide their ACC radar sensor behind the big 3-pointed star in the grille, which is now a closed design.

Apologies for bringing up an old topic, but couldn't resist - when you badgeless on a Merc the radar is clearly visible.

That's an amazingly fast turnaround through the port/customs/compliance plate attachment, etc process, which usually takes up to 2 weeks before the dealership receives delivery. How were you able to get yours through the system so fast? BTW, she looks wonderful in Lapiz Blue!
