Let me ad my point of view on that subject.
An Orange C32 has unclearcoated paint and allows 1.2 magnamounts of air moist into the paint making your tire wear uneven.
Plus if I may ad, your 22 inch spoked wheels will not let you brakes cool and add extensive wear to the calipe
rs.
So my point of view is that you should listen to me and be a stuffy internet nobody who thinks they are the shizzle..

With the release of the new models, starting with the E55 with the advanced all electronic braking system, which is the "first" introduction of the all controlled by wire feature now on cars available everywhere... (or at least to those that can afford the E55... (yo Doc!...

At first, the car does feel like a video game, and I don't play video games... but it takes a bit of "getting used" to as the steering process processes not only which direction you are steering, but acceleration and breaking as well (forward/backwards for the stick), though what I've been told, the first line up will use pedals for accelerating and breaking... when I had the demo, the "great" feature was that Mercedes will no longer have to manufacture parts for "left" and "right" ****pits... as for each part any of our cars have, there is a part with a different catalog number for the same part on cars that have it on the right side

My understanding is that M Benz plans to roll the steer by wire version (with pedals still on the floor) on the market with the next major S class release (something as already started by the soo wonderful C class!!! overhaul of the models most of us have, SL class, followed by the new E class release, SLK, and the list goes...)

My ride is PHAT! I just did that color change last week. It took me like 45 bottles of spray paint (home depot was happy with my purchase), but I think it looks freakin cool yo! Those 22's are DA BOMB! I've got to be the first with 22's on my ride - and I upgraded to gold plated brake lines so no fade! The only fading is me and my 40oz of 8-Ball!
Here's what my ride used to look like before I became a Super P*I*M*P!
I was getting too much drag from the satellite dish (I lost like .0000003 of a second on my qtr mile time) so I had to remove it. The gold plated AMG rims were bartered off to a street vendor in TJ (I was drunk and hungry and the tacos and chiclets looked good).
I'm a modding foo yo!

Porsche Turbo Stage 4, Cayenne S ... gone C43, C32, ML55 & Ducati 999.
Vader13, I have test drove the E55 before I got my 996tt, honestly I am with you 100%. You guys know how much I tune my C-, and the E55 did not imporessed me as much on the test drive. It may be a bit quicker over 80-90 mph and of couser more after that BUT is not that fun to drive that a well C32 with 350 rwhp, and not even mention the handling. If we need to put both cars in a track I do not think the E55 will pay the $. Now on the Autobanh or the Aurtostrada....well it may be another story. E55 is more confortable and lux than the C, but this is the trade off.
Ciao!
