When I have spent a little more time with the S Class I hope to be able to contribute relevant input to the thread discussing the merits of the Flying Spur compared to the S65 (I've owned the Continental GT since November 2004).

Mercedes all the way!
VERY nice collection there, hcwong.

the design of your house/condominium (can't tell) is extremely tasteful as well.

that van in the first picture of your last post won't happen to be your daily driver, would it?

Beautiful pictures! I bet in that Nevada weather, the Alabaster White is paying off nicely.

The S550 at Hoover Dam/Lake Mead

Yes, the lake has been down for a couple of years. Almost reached a record low last year. However, it is higher now and with this winters runoff, by fall it should be up higher. We have water restrictions on lawns and such.

I had not been to the dam in sometime and they have really made progress on the new bridge access roads and approaches. Should be done in 2008. That 2 lane route over the dam has outlived it usefullness.

This is an unusual wheel option for those who may prefer a more elegant look to go with mixed size 19" tyres. These are original MB wheels, they can be seen in the Mercedes German website and if anyone is interested, the MB product code to order them is R47.

I took these picture at the final DTM race of the 2005 season, at Hockenheim. A Mercedes CLK driven by Garry Paffert won a very exciting race!

That price is a steal! I you refer to the Mercedes Benz website you will discover that they are a Eur2,100 option, whereas US$1,200 is only Eur990!

I believe it's only for the US market that it's an S550. In other countries it is still called the S500.

Is your father-in-law's car a short wheel base model?

If yes, how much more rear leg room is there, compared

to your CLS (I drove a CLS here in the US but it is a little

small for my size)

Thank you

Jim

There is nothing wrong with "stock" on these two cars...drive them in good health.

W221 rear door stretch, spotted in Moscow.

Most likely done by ArmorTech, they do a lot of rear door stretches of the W220, W221, E65, etc, in virtually any length specification, in addition to armoring the vehicle. Other suspects include Carat Duchatelet, Trasco, Cloer, and Asbeck.

(And no, Brabus wheels dont mean anything, Brabus very rarely stretches rear doors in any way)
