So I got to drive a C55 today....

All I can say

OH MY GOD. You had to see the grin on my face I floored it a few times and I was like WOW!!!!!. Torque was NIIIIIICE. hanlding was exellent, interior was gorgous especially with the nappa leather(Best seats EVER!). It was ash with birdseye maple. Exterior was Granite Grey. the quads, the front end treatment, the wheels!!!!

I went back to my car and it felt like a turtle. Seriously I am going to trade in my car for this beast. Probably next year, an 06 model. I know its going to be the last year but I love the W203 body, so it wont bother me.

Anyways just letting you guys know. Now I need some withdrawl meds since im hooked

get factory bixenons this time! Yea the 55 is a different beast than the 320, suspension feels so much tighter. Get diamond black, forget the gray.
