Cool Hello everybody

Just wanted to say hello, because I´m new to this forum.
I´m a prowd owner of a audi RS6 and have also bought, last week, the first CL65 in Sweden. Had to pay 2.100.000SEK, which is app. $277.400.

The car is fully equiped, with all the stuff that was avaliable at the time of bying the car. Now I´m just waiting to race my father in his F40 and my brother in his F355 F1 (soon 360CS). will post some pics of that, but first, here is my car at the retail, taken last night (outside) when it rained like h**l.

Lightbulb Hmmm!

If it is the small "dots" on the bumper you mean, then it is the parking sensors!

No not the Parktronic sensors...


The flare just behind the rear wheel on the leading edge of the bumper above the flare line.

The flares are for TUV acceptance. In Germany the tires can not stick out further than the fender flares.....

Just curious.

That's what I thought. Maybe they wanted to show off the CL65 when it went in for service?

Yes!

The picture is from the showroom, they put the car there because i did not have the time to fetch it. the s65 was also in for service, bought 3 before i bought the cl 65. the car is no standing on a parking space i n the town, some fu***ng fool have scratched the left door with a key, about 25-30 cm or teen inches long. Mercedes will fix it, but not until the 6th of aug. s**t.
