Detailing and Cosmetic Restoration
We recently sent this coupe to undergo an extensive cosmetic and preservation detailing process carried out by one of the most respected high-end automotive detailing studios in the United States before coming to Mercedes Motoring Headquarters in Prescott, Arizona for additional mechanical and cosmetic restoration / fit and finish. This coupe is turn key both mechanically and cosmetically.
