Looking for a cls55 with 030 package

Just sold the e55 and I am in the market for a cls55. I might order a new cls63 if I can not get a cls55 with 030 package.

I would order the CLS63. It will still smokes the pants off the M5 so dont worry at all. Not to mention it will handle better than the CLS55 due to the lighter more efficient engine.

Also the 7G transmission is a few pounds lighter than the 5 speed we have right now from my understanding. Besides you get the most advanced V8 in the world with bucket taps, silicone coated heads and cylinder walls, and vertical air chambers.

Thumbs up Cls55-030 Rules!!!

E55 Pilot - If you can find a CLS55-030 grab it. It is the best handling, sounding, and accelerating Luxury Car available today. Put the K1 Kleeman performance kit on it and you will kiss the M5 and the CLS63 good-by on the street and road course! With the LSD that comes with the 030 package the CLS55-030 just hooks and launches, from a stop and a roll on, with very little ESP interference. - Bob

I need your help.

You guys are great. Thank you for the quick response. MB fanatic, I agree with you to have the new cutting edge technology. I also agree with evolution marine. I am so confused on what to do. If I get the cls63 I have to wait til july or august. If I get a good price on a 06 with the 030 package, I might have to pull the trigger. I can say one thing about this forum. If you dont ask you will not recieve. I have had a lot of response to my ad and already found 3 car. What do you guys think about the value of the cls 55? Will it tank like the e55?

The value of the 55K cars IMO will not decrease as rapidly as people seem to think it will. FWIW, the beast is going to Colorado in a few weeks to get the whole package, K4, and everything done. Also getting exhaust done but keeping stock mufflers hopefully as I am going for that stock look.

Hats off the the gents at Kleemann, Cory and Brandon simply rock.

Might want to check into this one -- new vehicle with 030 at a sizeable discount off MSRP
