HOT damn. I love CLS, old and new, nice pickup, enjoy it.

Jeremy Clarkson said this about the CLS: "It's like a thug in a tuxedo."

Welcome to the CLS club!
I too had been a BMW fanatic for many years (still own an M3 and 635csi), but the CLS is so much more fun...

CLS 55 AMG
I have to agree with the others. Love the 55, but the wheels are a bit much for me. I see a lot of blacked out mopars, camaros and bikes in Arizona. I'm not a fan of blacked out merc. On the other hand, I especially love the light colored leather interior. I don't typically see this color on AMGs other than white. I think you will find that the 55 is a torque monster. Mine is stock for the most part and I consistently run mid 12s at the drag strip.
