Default PICS : D2-AUTOSPORT 2006 Promo Vehicles - CL55 and Continental GT

Hey Guys,

I just wanted to share some updated photos of a couple cars on our promo team for 2006. The goal is to have a vehicle in every segment of our client base so here is the Mercedes Benz CL55 and Bentley Conti-GT (new pics). We also are working on a a couple BMW's, and of course a couple Lexus vehicles.

These pics are from a Mercedes Benz meet that we bought the cars out to earlier today.

Hope you guys enjoy the pics

(since you have seen the GT before, we'll start with the CL55)


2003 CL55, 20" BRABUS MONOBLOCK 3, LORINSER TRUNK / ROOF WING, LOWERED
(a few KLEEMANN and AUTOCOUTURE goodies are on the way for this one)

Derrick, the wheels themselves look great on each car. But I’m not feelin’ either of the cars rear end additions.

On the Benz, I’m not sure I like the roof spoiler. I don’t know if it’s because of the angle of the pic. But I’ve never thought a roof spoiler on a coupe looked that good. And what is that small wing-like thing on the Bentley? I’m assuming it’s fixed? Again, it may be the pic itself, but I’m just not feelin’ it.

But back to the wheels, they are great choices for amazing cars. Keep up the good work!

Nice Derrick, i wished you could have gotten ahold of this guy i saw tonight with a CL with the worse set of chrome wheels i've ever seen bolted on a CL. It made me cry and i think baby Jesus did as well. I guess money cant buy taste. I really wanted to say something but decided to just turn away

Its so funny, but I always argue with both of the clients on those 2 things. The LORINSER trunk wing is perfect, howevr the roof wing does have a sort of aggressive angle (should be more flush like the ACS models IMO). And the wing on the BENTLEY rear wing is actually the OEM speed dependent wing (under 30-50mph it actually retracts, however it has a interior button which allows it to be raised). I like it better with the wing down (the fenders look like 996 Turbo Porsche's)

Thanks for the input.
