My C55 arrived from the fatherland at the port over the weekend. My salesman called me and told me, i should have it sometime this week. I asked him about the price, but he told me that there was no price yet in the computer ( i cant believe that!!). He told me he thinks that the price is going to be in the low to mid 50's. I will keep you guys posted! I CANT WAIT!!!!!!

Hey! You order it without knowing the price and the dealer still can't give it to you? Wish I could do business like that. Whatever they charge you will be less than an E55. Let's see pics when it arrives.

Congrats! So you're taking delivery of a car that your salesman is telling you low to mid 50's? How is that possible that they don't have any price? Sorry but i think your sales guy is ing you?

Yeah, i thought about that a while back, so i asked the GM of the dealership & he told me the same thing. I could care less if their bull****ing, it's not like i'm forced to take the car, if it's to expensive or not what i hoped for, bye bye. I'll get my deposit and go on my way.

Chris,

I'll try to get more...

You're getting black C55...to replace a silver C32

I am replacing my black 32 with a silver C55...:p

Keeping a black car clean is just too much work... I don't think I will buy a black car again.

Ever considered the grey interior below?

lol, yes we're opposites. I agree with you, a black car is hard to maintain, but they look sooooo sweet when their clean. I like the interior below, but i ordered mine in, yep you guessed it: black, lol.


Thanks for the pics!!!

Yeah, C55...here they come!

I haven't been on this site for months as I was totally discouraged, knowing I'd have to wait all this time for a C55 to come out. So popped in today and someone is already saying their C55 is coming this weekend! WOW!

I was told the same thing by 2 dealers btw..."we don't have any pricing Nick but I can allocate a car for you right now to have it come in around June" but I told them I'd like to see the pricing first. If the price isn't too far off from the E55...then obviously I'm going with the E but I really can't see MB justifying that kind of sticker for a C55.

Congrats Chris on your C55!

Now I'll be back visiting this forum as the C55 is becoming more of a reality! I placed an order back in Jan. for a C32 but that's when they stopped making it and I know once I get my C55...it'll be worth the wait!

Nick
