Im in booooyyyyyzzzzzzzzzzz!

ordered my cls55 today to replace my e55. plain old silver and black with xenons only. possible march delivery. i thought my e55 was the perfect sedan but at 98% satisfaction the cls55 is 100% perfect. ill simply swap out the hre 547r's (if theyll fit) and be content... until evo's stage 3 or course!

Where'd you order yours from? I placed a deposit on the CLS55 back in July and still no word yet.

I too plan on taking off the HREs and hopefully take out the Renntech Pulley and slap it in the CLS.

I am looking for a good dealer in Southern California to put a deposit on a CLS55 to replace my E55. I just want a dealer that will keep me updated and not let someone else take my spot. Any suggestions?

Call Mark Newton at House of Imports Mercedes-Benz. He is very nice and doesn't play price games.

Thanks Al, I went down to House of Imports and met Mark Newton. Very nice guy. I ordered the CLS55 in Iridium Silver with Charcoal interior. I got the Premium Package, Lighting Package, Keyless Go and High Gloss Laural wood. The Premium Package is great, it has almost everything you could want-Nav, Ventilated Seats, Drive Dynamic Seats, CD Changer, Power Rear Window Sunshade. The only con is I am really dissapointed that I cant get Black Birds Eye Maple like on my E55. That wood is the *****. I am number 5 on the list and my car will be delivered in late April or early May. Its gonna be a very long 5-6 months but from what I have seen of the CLS55, it will be worth every minute and every penny! Thanks for the recommendation!
