Man, the 55 and the M5 are absolutely going sideways...this is what your cars were designed to do...but don't try this at home kids...could be expensive.

Cheers, enjoy
In that vid if you look at the engine plaque you will see the engine builder is Robert Feiler!!! thats the dude that built my engine.
Cool!

Definitely this weekend...I will be out of town the next...Just ran into a guy down at A&J Auto Detail where I get my car washed and he's got a 55 that is really good looking. All lowered and everything blacked out...he said Bruce Canepa did it for him...here's some pics...

I agree Spin, and the wheels look small when you have black on black. This weekend is cool, why dont we meet up somewhere so we can drive down to Santana Row together?

Funny thing, this image thing...the fellow that owns that blacked out "ghetto-looking" contraption is actually an older gentleman in the aerospace-tech business....go figure...the guy was fun to talk to and we hit it off pretty well. Did invite to come to the forums and check us out and maybe go hang out at Santana Row.

About Santana Row, where would everyone (whoever is going) like to meet up. Let's get a head count firstly...Who's in? I got to make sure I get enough cash out of the ATM for all that Cocolat coffees and carrot juices!!!

I'm going to start a new thread on a really cool issue...will post it in a few minutes, go check it out...all 55 owners!

CLS 63 Deliveries

Read on-line that they were supposed to be released to North America in June but our dealerships here in Pennsy and NJ aren't so sure ... anyone have a clue as to when we can expect them in the NE Corridor?
