That's definitely one thing I realized when I purchased it - it's great to drive, and I love driving it. It's been a nice, comfortable, powerful, tight, fantastic car to drive on a daily basis.

C55 AMG
I really love this car. When I bought it I couldn't believe I own an AMG. That feeling never really goes away when I drive it or just see it in my garage. I think I would kick myself even if I sold it at 19k to be honest. I hope you find that gem because it is a true pleasure to drive! I think this is a sure keeper until the doors fall off.

That's what I want to hear!

Can't wait to find one and put myself in the driver's seat.

That's the idea! To keep it until the doors fall off!

Yeah, that was my first AMG PL meet- had a blast!! Autocross with SLK55s and a hot lap around the circuit with Bernd Maylander in an SLS!

Did you make it out to that one?

I did make it out there. It was definitely interesting and I still remember it. Wished the Pagani made it there too.
