2006 C55 coming soon

I am hopefully purchasing an '06 C55 soon! Silver/Ash with birdseye maple wood trim. It has 91K miles...clean car. The car has had a front bumper cover replacement with OEM parts but otherwise untouched. Pics soon if everything works out!

I didn't want to post anything until I was sure. Car was manufactured 7/05 and is considered an '06 car. I will post the data card below from MB. Don't say anything about the dealer sticker...it is coming off immediately!

That type of wood interior trim, rather than the brushed aluminum, is very rare. Whether 05 or 06.

What is front lower spoiler replacement? It’s all part of the bumper.

picked it up today....it is really nice and drives perfectly. I am going to go through the maintenance thoroughly. I ordered from FCP Euro a transmission fluid change kit, spark plug kit with wires, oil change kit, rear diff fluid, gas cap, and cup holder. Last but not least...Renntech ECU flash ordered.

C55 AMG T with Kleemann K2 and some stuff: 414 hp and 576Nm :-)
Congratulations to a very special car!!

Maybe you should change the cooling-liquid too if it hasnīt been done for some years?
And (in my taste) put the star back on the hood for originality.
Give the exhaust-tips a good cleaning and the back of the silencers too when youīre at it. Itīll be noticed!
And last, when I had an ECU-upgrade, I soon after ordered a TCU-upgrade for little faster gearchanges. The two matches each other very well!
Enjoy!
