2002 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
The Story
Bought from its 2nd owner on Sept 1st 2019 just after my 19th birthday. I fell in love with it instantly after searching for an E class or S class mercedes for some time. I had a vision to make it Kompressor S55 fast or around there, while keeping it N/A. Eventually it became obnoxious and pretty quick for what it is. Everyone told me it’s a waste of money but I’ve learned so much about the car and the platform through the ownership of this vehicle. It’s got a very special place in my heart. I don’t want to be the fastest or the best or the coolest. I just want to build what I want, do the mods I want to do. No matter what people tell me. After some mods and tuning, the car ended up in a front end collision, which is detailed on my YouTube and Instagram, as well as the rebuild process. In coming back from that, the original wheel plan and front end was somewhat changed, so it’s now got some interesting lighting and a different look. Eventually it will have a bumper and the wheels will be refinished.
