CLS 55
Goodbye Cayenne, Hello Mercedes.

Recently traded in my Cayenne S for a CLS 55. This is my first Mercedes and I am in love. I am the second owner, just over 60k miles. Arizona car until now... love the color. Looking forward to learning more about the car and seeing where we end up. Now to make rooom in the garage to sit next to my B5 S4.

Great looking CLS. I'm interested to hear about your Cayenne journey. What year, when did you acquire it, and how many miles did you put on it? What led you to change from Cayenne to CLS? I'm of the mindset that a Cayenne is in my future. Not sure but I think so. Any words of wisdom on how to find a Cayenne, and what to watch out for? What did/didn't you like about the Cayenne?

Welcome! My S55 has been stablemates with my C5 Allroad 4.2 for 12 years. They have much in common but some notable differences (supercharger). But they work well together, winter v. summer, so that gives you a sense of how long you may own both. I purchased the Allroad in ‘07, the S55 in ‘09. So settle in, and again, welcome.

Cheers,

maw
