anyone ever "Pimped" thier w123?
 
Im just curious if most members leave their cars as original as possible? or if they modify them? or has anyone mod-ed their w123? IE different rims, updated interior etc...

I lowered the back of mine....



With tires in the trunk and a full tank of B99. :D

Seriously...body and interior wise mine is stock too.

I had the florescent purple lights mounted under the car but they got ripped off when I bottomed out cruise'n into the burger king parking lot. Maybe I lowered it too much???

I have mini-television screens mounted along the rocker panels of my 124, plus a tropical fishtank full of Lionfish in the trunk. Sometimes the Lionfish die when I turn up the pimpin' audio system, but I just replace them as necessary. I have replaced all the MB tex with maroon silk trimmed with gold piping, and have replaced the shifter with a diamond-encrusted sceptre. Obviously, I have 20-inch spinners. The 20-inch spinners also have television screens imbedded in them.

OK ... I'm really more a stock girl. I do have a 1.5-inch silver-plated nametag on the glove compartment with an MB logo and "Bodhi" engraved in it, though. Blingish? ... nah. I pretty much want everything as original as possible, inside and out. It just looks cleaner, and more classic. These cars are beautiful ... why booger them up?:cool:

Somebody once posted the most horrible interior pic in this fluffy green stuff. It took me a week before I slept all the way through the night. :eek: [might have been MTUPower, I can't remember. saw it at the yard]
I also had one pic of an interior in what appeared to be flowery wall paper, but the great laptop crash of 3 weeks ago pretty much took care of that pic......:( :(

*Here are the gauges that tell me how my little lady is doin. Notice the speed reaches a mere 85 mph. The car will do about 164.5 MPH give or take a few. I dont know why mercedez didn't test the cars speed before making a speedometer. Notice the millage on this bad boy. 289,547 miles and still running strong. And YES, that is a clock you see, once again, pimps drive cars that have clocks where the Tacometer should be.*

Ummmmmmm yeah, i think it would run outa oil and take like 50 mins going down hill to reach that speed

Gotta admit I went through all 7 pages and there was some funny ****e there!

Definitely a funny display for a 240. I loved it.

retx 03-08-2007 10:42 AM

wow, he reads the book on the floor, got good grades and a job making 100 grand with his brains, but he doesnt have money for a sub amp? wow.

funny but sad.

Johnhef 03-08-2007 12:18 PM

in all seriousness, I do modify mine a bit as you know, but nothing drastic. Only newer MB wheels, euro lights and taillights usually.
