Does he own a Benz aswell? Or did he switch from a Benz to the GTR?

I should be able to make it.. haha as soon as my morning classes finish I'll be toronto bound!.. instead of bringing A friend.. I'm prob gonna bring few.. 2 c63s and maybe another C300 along with mine. Dunno if she'll come though cuz she thinks her C300 is ugly because she didn't change any of the lights yet.. hhaha

EDIT,
Oh btw, if you guys want more turn outs should post this on MBworld as well. I know some w204s that would want to meet too.. or are you guys just keeping it within the pureMB community?

Haven't you seen any of the previous meet pic posts? He's been hanging with us for a long time now. Since winter of '08.
He had a CLS 55 AMG once but he joined 'cuz he's good friends with a bunch of us.

Well that'd be great if you could mention it to them. We're not a closed-in group. It's just hard to find other Canadian members from all over the internet and keep track of who's on which forums. If we could call all Canadian members from other forums we'd love to share.

Yeah, was at the one when the guy was opening up his shop, NextMod, and that whole BBQ thing was going on, and DJ..

Can somebody link me up with the exact address of the place? I google mapped it and there seems to be a plaza on both sides?

broken_arrow
02-05-2010, 05:13 AM
Sounds good bro! Saw a Red one on QEW today! Red looks good! Like urs better though.

As far as the time goes, Ill be there around 9:45. If Im not in the car, I will be inside La Paloma!

broken_arrow
02-05-2010, 05:16 AM
If you are going west on HWY 7, cross the 400, then your next major street is Weston I believe. There will be a Canadian Tire on the right right after Weston, take a first right, right after the Canadian Tire and go straight towards Kelseys. La Paloma is in that plaza.

Infamouz

If this is the same exact location as last time where there was also a BMW meet and Porsche meet at the same time with the BMW that crashed...
200 Windflower Gate
is the address.

Please correct me if I'm wrong for those of you who set it up! Wouldn't want to screw someone over.

Patrickkc

Yep, you got the rigth place. I google mapped it and found it. On the way there the drive on highway 7 should be a nice drive.

Charcol filters ?

broken_arrow
02-07-2010, 08:40 AM
Yep! The intakes have charcoal filters right above the regular paper filters... They are there for emission purposes because of stupid Californians, lol. Easy 10-12 rwhp gain when removed...

AndrewSprinterVan
02-07-2010, 08:51 AM
Wow thats crazy normally charcoal fiters are for the HVAC system on the car... why would you want to filter the air before you burn it up ???

Yank all that crap out and K&N filter probally good for 30 hp.

Infamouz
02-07-2010, 08:53 AM
Some guys got as much as 20rwhp.. infact a guy on MBWorld had a thread for his CLS63, and had dyno proof. Various results of 15, 17, 18 rwhp were achieved by other members. Same thing goes for M5's, and any other charcoal filter cars.

Hahaha!

BMW M Cars have those as well... I think they are there because at night when the car sits in the garage, harmful to the environment gases escape out of the intake... The charcoal filters keep them in the engine........... So they say...

Patrickkc
02-07-2010, 09:49 PM
I forgot the name of the store.. shit but it's one of those car shops inside that doen't sell the rims. I think they carry these bulbs in all the shops there so I think you can get it in any. Make sure you get H7 bulb type. My bulbs 6000k, the ones on the C63 were 7000k. I think thoes match better.. the brand starts with an N.. i forget the name.. haha and it's only $25. LOL hope this helps a bit?...
oh btw, if you get bulbs like us.. the light output will be reduced a lot.. i'd say almost 40-50%

I had the rear fog light on lol. Tripod is indeed a MUST, but this was put together from random clips but if I were to make a nice "professional" type video then for sure! I was in the market for predated CL 2000-2002 (non-kompressor) but they tend to lack alot of power for the weight IMO so I went for the blown motor. So mod friendly too!

I am so interested into a kompressor S or CL too but should I worry about those air suspension problem? or other electronic problems? I have heard so much stories about the air suspension problem and is the main problem that hold me back from getting one......I am always so temped to sell my W210 for one of them.....yours is mint condition too sal so how is it going after owning it for a while now? I mean no question about the power but any other stuff that I should be looking for or worrying about if I am really going to look for one? I dont think I will look for a pre-facelifed model since as you said they lack a lot of power....I testdrove a 2002 CL600 last time b4 I go back to hong kong....with 125k clicks, designo expresso and AMG package for 22k... it was slower then my W210 so....no point of changing it I guess.....also I guess the pre-facelifted one has even worst air suspension and electronic problem?

oh yeah I see that so was that fixed under warranty? and how many km on the ride when it occurs? coz I would think if I buy it used with no warranty is a very expensive fix!! lol I donno I guess my W210 seems more trouble free then the S and CL but I just always wanted a kompressor S and CL for some reason

Hey Mike I think you should go for the facelift models S or CL. Most of the later ones are better in reliability and the interrior materials are much better too, not to mention the old COMAND just sucks. Don't worry about the air suspension stuff as this does not have air, but rather hydraulic suspension (Active body control) which hydraulics proved to be much, much stronger than air setup. The ABC works well you won't believe how this car handles, there is NO body roll and the steering is light and very responsive. Just shoot and fire steering is awesome works with the same tandem as the suspension's.

Good luck !

thanks sal I guess no point of getting the pre-facelifte for sure......I understand the old comand haha I have it on my W210 is slow as hell! I guess most important is to find one thats good condition like urs! big problem is wht should I do with my 210 lol....I guess I can think about it after I actually find a good S or CL first!
