What/ how/where can I get this?

So the other day me and my girlfriend were going to go out to dinner (tgi fridays... yum!) and I parked next to a early 90's S-class, but it didnt say the model just said "RENNTECH" or however you spell it. I fell in total love with it. maybe an s320-s500 that had been modded by renntech? I really dont know please help cuase im dying for one. or any other mercedes .

I allready did, but I guess what I wanted to know was like are those rare? Did he have to ship it to Germany/RENNTECH to get all that done?

I believe the work for US cars is all done in FL or through authorized dealers, depending on the degree of tuning.

Renntech tuning is $$$, but it is of extremely high quality. That's where the rarity comes in.

Ahh i got ya. hmm ok thanks for the quick replys! This S-class I saw had 20 inch version of the stock E420/320 rims, brabus exhaust, windows were so tinited that I couldnt quit see in, but had a steering wheel upgrade of some sort. deff deff lowered. So much i couldnt fit any of my fingers between the fender and the tire. Just looking at Renntechs web site everything from brakes to $15k super chargers were so profesionaly done/built looking that those parts deserve such high prices.lol I wish I had the $$$ to go out buy a 94 500E and tell renntech to have fun with it...no matter the cost. But I dont have that much money lol long post...sorry.

I had an Accord as a beater car for about 3 months. Its good and reliable, but it doesn't have the feel of a German Car.

You are very right! its a 1996 coupe. red wine/maroon color. I mean if your gona "tune" a honda at least tune a vtec.lol not 2.2L l4 with 130hp stock (now is a respectable 150hp) See im almost addicted to working on cars so yes my brother bought the parts but I putt them on/tuned it for him out of the love of working with my hands on cars..and i hated to let him pay more $$$ to take it to a shop, i mean he is my brother.lol

All you need is a phone and a very healthy check book and Renntech will take car of the rest.
