Or concentrated elegance in three letters. The first-generation CLS is a real design masterpiece thanks to its still modern and particularly elegant lines and is also a truly rewarding tuning base.
The technicians at PP Exclusive have given this CLS a subtle but highly effective tuning treatment. The elegant Crownjewel rims are an absolute eye-catcher, with 11×20 wheels at the front with 255/30 ZR20 tires and a 4.5-inch outer rim and wide 13×20 wheels at the rear with 305/25 ZR20 tires and a six-inch outer rim. This extreme wheel/tire combination made more extensive work on the body necessary, as the fenders were widened by 10 mm at the front and 15 mm at the rear on each side. The chassis is lowered by means of an electric lowering module, whereby the vehicle can be lowered by up to 100 mm using buttons on the steering wheel. The current level of lowering is displayed on the instrument cluster. PP Exclusive has equipped the CLS with a stainless steel exhaust system with four oval tailpipes, which emit a brute sound to ensure that the exhaust gases are processed in a manner befitting their species. The changes to the exterior appearance include an aluminum front and rear wing as well as a hood extension. There are also elegant hood fins made of aluminum and the radiator grille painted in body color.
