CLS 55 are all over the place

I guess the CLS55 are selling like hot cakes. I have seen 3 just today in Cincinnati. They look better in person. Is there a waiting list for these cars?

Thanks

Are you sure they were actually 55's? I have seen lots of 500's with the AMG Sport Package and you cant tell the difference unless you look at the brakes or the exhaust. And the fender emblems and lip spoiler too. Dont be fooled just because its got the bumpers and skirts.

I checked with my dealer Fletcher Jones in Newport Beach CA to see with the waiting list was like of a CLS55. If you get your deposit in today, there's only 160 people in front of you.

Glad I ordered mine last year. Car is on the water and will be here in 3 weeks.

Its the same with Fletcher Jones here in Vegas.The sales advisor said good luck if you want a 55 it will be ages. Glad I was able to get an order slot in months ago just for the ordinary CLS mid May build at MSRP.

I picked up my CLS55 last Thursday. Dealer said that he got calls daily from other dealers to see if they could get it even before it got off the boat. Car is sweet. I am glad I traded the E55 for it. Will post pictures in the near future.

No, unfortunately I cant afford to keep 'em both otherwise I would! I was rear ended on Nov 13th and that was the deciding factor in making me change cars. I am trading my E55 in on the CLS55. Its coming in on Apr 30th.
