Congratulations! I too managed to just barely finish (I finished lab 49 with two tokens and two hours left; crashed on the first race against the AI, and won it on the second). I'd have purchased a token refill or two if I was close, but thankfully I didn't have to. I did have to burn tokens on maybe a half dozen races to keep the quality checks, but all in all I probably came out ahead (though of course, lots of farming was needed to max the car). I only had to set an alarm once! I'm amazed by the people who could win it at <1650; I ran it maxed and pro 4554, triple boosted. I was able to beat the last AI despite a not great race and without using the glitch on the final run, so I probably could have won with a slightly lesser upgraded car, but no way could I have done it under 1650.

I'm now 4/8 on the R&D's (I also won the Pugeot, the Torq and the Alfa), and I did get the Weber Faster One, having lucked out into no glitches. I'm hoping to have a bit of a break (perhaps they will repeat one that I have already won next).

The Mercedes is a nice car, with a nice accel, good nitro duration, and nice handling. But there are lots of good high A cars, so it probably doesn't add much to my garage, especially upgraded to 1700+.
