This car is awesome! This was the car that introduced AMG to the world, and was marketed for the sole purpose to compete with the M3. Looks good, I'd keep it red.

The fat German 5-spoke is my favorite wheel on a luxo sedan ever. That red could really pop with a nice repaint and find a nice photoshopper and see if a new-merc-inspired black roof would look good. It definitely needs something but what that is... I have no idea.

I love this thing. Please don't paint a different color, slam, or change the wheels on it. It looks better than 90% of anything else on here and has a very classic design that means business. I'm not even a fan of Benz's or this body style, but it looks fantastic stock. Maybe better tires, a tune up, and a nice wax job for the winter would be it. Repaint of the same color also. Hope to see it out at some C&C's! Better photos would do it justice also.

Always liked these a lot. Agree with everyone who says leave the stock wheels.

I say definitely don't change the wheels (or if you do keep it 90s AMG), but a red Mercedes just doesn't look right somehow. Kind of ruins the understated look. That being said I certainly wouldn't blame you for wanting to stay faithful to the OEM specs.

Yes, keeping the Mono blocks they look cool and era specific.

I appreciate the remarks, im going to a meet this Saturday and then probably going to park it and do some serious maintenance over the winter months.
