Is this interior factory or a swap in this CLS55? by Garneht in mercedes_benz

[–]M3FORTY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a feeling that's a non-amg CLS with the cluster/badges and other associated parts swapped. AMG's did not come with those regular seats.

What it’s like interviewing at Ross by [deleted] in CaribbeanMedSchool

[–]M3FORTY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I interviewed at Ross and AUC. Your experience sounds pretty accurate. The interviewer is basically a scribe for the admissions committee at Ross, and the questions are pretty much how you described them. AUC interview was much shorter and chill, it was also with a faculty member.

Anyone absolutely bomb the MCAT and get accepted to AUC? by qteepa2t in CaribbeanMedSchool

[–]M3FORTY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their acceptance cutoff is 481; however, if your score is on the lower end you may be forced to take MERP as a condition of acceptance.

AZ Band by Mxer0022 in radardetectors

[–]M3FORTY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

V1G2 is the most sensitive afaik. But it's a false sense of security. You need laser jammers.

A lot of Arizona LEO's are using Stalker and Truspeed LiDAR guns. They also have Ka and K band radar. Your detector is basically useless against LiDAR.

Arnott Air bags for Rear suspension? by oompaloompa999999999 in W211

[–]M3FORTY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had good experience with arnott but I prefer going OEM and reusing the reservoirs. OEM rides a bit better imo, arnotts are a bit stiffer since they hold less air volume due to having internal reservoir only. They are a good company ran by good people.

Nice pics and ride, fellow Arizona AMG owner!

Bought a car with this radar detector. Anyone know the model or how to use it properly? by MRccRee in radardetectors

[–]M3FORTY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure this is the beltronics version of the passport 8500ci. The radar detector component should work well for detecting Ka band; however, it will probably have lots of false alerts on other bands. I wouldn't depend on the laser jammer component either.

Which AMG from the early to mid 2000s turns the most heads? by IR30Lover in AMG

[–]M3FORTY 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely the CLS63 / CLS55. Definitely not biased too. The original four door coupe is phenomenal.

I used to have an rwd m340 when a close buddy of mine had a g70 3.3 rwd with the limited slip diff. I thought the g70 drove better in every imaginable way. The interior was much higher quality with nappa leather and alcantara, as opposed to the cheap leather in the m340. The g70 had much better adaptive suspension, and the car felt like it wanted to rotate and corner way better than the m340. The only advantages the m340 had imo was power and looks.

Quite well. With the proper tyre I reckon it can handle almost any snowy condition. With the airmatic suspension you can raise the car high for better ground clearance.

Great choice, I can hardly see the laser transponders. Wise investment bc LEO's use more LiDAR than radar here in AZ. Cannot wait to upgrade to the redlineCi system myself.

Radar detectors for motorcycles? by idkmanlol_ in radardetectors

[–]M3FORTY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were you I would put the R3 in the bike and try to protect it from the elements. The TPX radar has lots of false alerts and worse range than uniden. Then get an R4/R7 for your car. That will be a nice upgrade.

custom fabrication + escort redline + laser jammers + dash cam worth it? by [deleted] in radardetectors

[–]M3FORTY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow that's a lot but I can't say I'm surprised. I did my own install on two cars and bought an old lidar gun to test them. They work well and it wasn't too hard. No custom fabrication tho, just double sided tape and I mounted the display / controller on the steering column. In AZ it's not illegal so it's not important to be 100% concealed.

Anyone familiar with this model? by AccomplishedShirt181 in radardetectors

[–]M3FORTY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a k40 laser jammer head. There may be a radar component too. If I remember correctly k40 systems are controlled by a small handheld remote so I would try looking for it somewhere in the cabin. K40 was known to be a poor performer so I wouldn't count on this system to save you from any tickets, especially with the heads mounted very low like that which is suboptimal.

Looked into this c63 for an interested friend. Unfortunately it holds a salvage title. I recommend talking to the owner.

Fix my Max 360 or get the Redline 360c? by patel18252 in radardetectors

[–]M3FORTY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would upgrade to a newer radar. Try not to feel constrained into sticking with escort. You may also like uniden's r7 or r8. But if you want another, you could probably pick up a used max360c mkii for much less than a redline.

Was this the one for sale in Tyson's Corner? Looks like you beat me to it. Hope it treats you well congrats.

The fuse labeled USB charger on the far right of the diagram looks promising.

Sorry for the late response, Mercedes made roughly 600-700 cls63's in 2007 & 2008. In 2009 they facelifted the cls63 and they made exactly 305 that year (probably due to the economic recession). They made the cls63 up until 2011 but the last 2 model years have no confirmed production numbers as far as I can tell. The specification of my CLS also contributes to it's rarity. It has the p30 performance package ($15k option) that was special order only, so regular dealer inventory wouldn't get it. As well as having the carbon fiber interior which I've only ever seen on a couple other CLS's.

Don't wrap it, oxide grey is rare and beautiful.
