My wait is finally over. Took delivery yesterday,. Sold my C55 today. Life is good.

everyone talks about how fast these are. I agree......thing is a beast. All I expected and more. Thing that REALLY surprised me is how fast you can go from 100 to 0. Brake s are insane!!!

Your shifter looks different. I don't have the AMG thing on top. Just the Mercedes star. Is this a PP thing?

Lugs are the same as stock. Caps are a dime a dozen
