So far so good apart from the Headlamp washers not working. Going to check the fuse first. They did take their time but then they had to deal with very high humidity and high 90's low 100's temp. Not a great combo to allow paint to dry.

Hi All,
I just got a 2005 C55 AMG with 12k miles on it. Its a gem and it still smells brand new![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I got plenty of fast cars before, but nothing compares to this car.
my first car 1996 Honda Prelude then 2001 Honda Accord EX, 2003 Subaru WRX, 2001 BMW X5, 2006 G35, 2001 Honda Odyssey and finally my AMG.
Here's my new baby! The only upgrade i got is a set of brand new continental dws! Pretty sweet tires! and Oh yeah its debadged....sleeper amg

LOL yeah, back then, my fast and furious generation, a Civic Si with 160HP was totally FAST!!! fastest car out of the list was the WRX with Stage I mods: full exhaust, filter, CPU program and boost controller, dynoed 260 on the wheels.

am I wrong to drool over the new 2012 Odessey?

im new the the mercedes game so maybe someone can help but what wheels are those that i have? they arent the usual wheels ive seen on everyone elses c55 so im not sure if they are some rare model wheel and i shouldnt switch them out but i wanted to be sure before i did.

Chances are it's a replica wheel from either Ebay or those OE wheel websites.

Does the dealer have the factory C55 rims? If yes, I suggest you swap it.

nah they said its how the car came in but when i took a closer look at the wheels the AMG stamps are there and serial numbers too along with mercedes markings on the insides of the barrels on the wheels. Im pretty confident that its a OEM wheel for sure just not which model or off which vehicle
