Don't think so.

Same with Brabus, just with them you have to dig a bit deeper.

Last I checked the Brabus Rocket was $250k. But it will do 220mph.


Like the old saying: "Speed is only a queston of money, how fast do you want to go?"

We should do a thread with 99 E300's and their last 6 vin#'s with build date. This would be interesting to find out when most of the 99's were built... I am intersted to see how many 6/99's we have!

The MY00+ had the controllable transmission with the - and +. I believe they were the same transmissions, with a different control unit. If mine ever goes out I will be getting the updated control module. Especially handy since you can see what gear you are in on the cluster.

Posting full VIN's is a great way to help car thieves to clone cars.

Not really. If it was then eBay, or any parking lot for that matter, would be an open bank vault to them.

I did not know that the plug was gone. My 1999 has the drain plug as I used it to change the transmission fluid. My E300 has a build date of December 1998.
