The grill says cls500 with the amg package. This would be a poser car...
Need to see the exhausts. 2=cls500 4=cls55 Open the hood.
Salesman/Dealership need to revise the auction.

Read the entire listing.....it says the picture is not the car.....the car is still in port!

and the VIN# is of a CLS55. not that its real, but i dont think an MB dealer would fake a CLS500 as a 55.

Look at the rear calipers - they're black. Definitely not a CLS 55

You mean I'm suppose to read everything. J/K
Still, could be somewhat misleading. What if I liked those rims and the car I win doesn't have those. Just an example!

they probably didnt have pics available from the dealership so they used a CLS 500 w/amg package to show something similar. The dealership could get in alot of trouble if otherwise.
