Thinking of Upgrade to Brabus

Looking for honest input on upgrading from my loaded all Silver 09 Passion Coupe to a 09 black Brabus Coupe.

Think its worth the extra flash for a decent price? Is the ride quality and handling better? Exhaust note noticeable difference?

Really nice looking.

Depends what your personal preferences are. I have often thought about upgrading to a Cabrio...Shoulda woulda Coulda...

I have heard they ride a little better and handle better too.
