How do You spell "CLS 55 AMG" ?:)

if you are not native english speaker - how do you spell in your native language?
i think most of You spell: C-L-S [as single letters], same A-M-G. but i'm not sure about 55 - five-five or fifty-five?
in my language we spell C-L-S fifty-five
i know this is a stupid question but i'm just curious

Something on 4 wheels..
German version

As a native German speaker:

C-L-S no difference just other pronounciation (hope I spelled that right.. :p )
55 (fünfundfünzig - also means fifty-five, not 5-5)
A-M-G no difference, same case as cls

and SL 600 - how it would be ? S-L fünfhundert oder vielleicht S-L fünf null null [but as far as i know german language, i'd rather say S-L fünfhundert]?? And BMW 745i - BE-EM-WE siebenhundertfünfundvierzig?

You are right - as general rule you can say that the letters are always pronounced individually (like we do in the U.S., too) and the number is pronounced as a complete amount,
although SL 600 means S-L sechshundert (sixhundred) and not S-L fünhundert (fivehundred) :p

That's what I thought
With soo many different models and engines it's hard NOT to mix them up... :p
