I'm gonna buy this retarded car.....

It'll prolly be October when I can cough up the money to extradite me from my current situation into a C55 but I'll take it with all its unreliable glory. I looked at the Vette and saw the new 911. I just want to haul *** and be able to talk on the phone without yelling. Vette no Friggin way, Porsche, to much money not enough go. C55 totally under the radar, comfy, quiet, cheap insurance and loaner cars.

BTW you can get those C240 4matics into a 4 wheel drift if you try hard enough

Sounds like you and your new car should get along just fine.

Two thumbs up on the CCW wheels. Not many people know about them but they are the best thing since sliced bread if you ask me. Very reasonable price, extremely strong and they look great. Those are the billet forged street wheels correct? A friend of mine has the CCW racing wheels on his E46 M3 (the car on CCW's web page). CCW is the real deal!

Ya I love em. They are the right wheel for this car. Was split between those guys and Colorado Custom. The racing tires are all over the place now at the track.

Hey Scott, yeah I really had an affinity for my C5 Vert. The whole Vette thing was new to me but I had a great time interacting with other owners doing track days and autox and drives. The Z06 were not surprisingly always walking us on the track. On the other hand I could drive home with the top down. :p LOL

The bottom line is that I keep stealing my wifes E500 cause I really like the luxury and ameneties of the car. I think the C55 offers a pretty stunning combo of luxury and speed. With the C55 I can take my wifes car and not strand her with a two seater and any combination of my three kids.
