Smile I got a CL55 this weekend

I just picked up a CL55 this weekend I'm pretty excited i got one of my dream cars at only 21.. It definatly is a great car .
I have a question for you owners tho isn't the command/nav system supposed to play dvd video when the car isn't moving because mine doesn't and my nav won't let me enter a destination wheter I'm stopped or not so I'm assuming i have a problem with the sensor that tell the Nav if the car is in motion or not.

Don't Have To Be 30 To Own A Cl

a CL55 is very cheap these days, so you don't have to be 30 to own one (you can be 17 to own one). instead of buying a brand new nissan or honda for around 40K, use it towards a used 00-03 CL for almost the same price range. by the way, that's a very nice black CL, looks tough.side marker gotta go and you are pretty set.

It may be 'cheap' to buy these days, but it's not always cheap to run

Still jonmartin, congrats on a bad-*** CL55. Looks kinda mean. Be sure to drive safely now

What am I saying, drive it like you stole it

LOL well I dunno if a $80K-100K for a CL55 is "Cheap" and also I haven't seen any 17 year old with one yet maybe a 500 or something those are a lil cheap. But um usually at that age with that pricetag it was given to them by parents or something anyway which imo doesn't count so it's pointless to bring up hell I seen a 15 yo kid on MTV's "Sweet Sixteen" get a S550 from his dad doesn't mean anything at all except a nice gift. Now If I see a young person like my self build their own bank accounts and have their own house and yada yada then I will give my props.right fellas?..But ya thanks for the reply. smoked lenses on the way

You're also pretty arrogant about it. I'm 25 and you don't see me posing in front of my car like I'm on the cover of Forbes, its because I'm in an office all day. I'm not saying you don't but people on this board all work hard for what they have, and there's a difference between pride and showing off.

all you young cats with megabucks sleds are kicking my ***! when i was 21 i was living half in my car, half in a sleazy rehearsal space in hollywood, playing tuesday night gigs at the whisky a gogo and lesser venues in a band that didn't end up going anywhere (singer and drummer both hopeless meth-heads), and doing freelance work on local bands' demo tapes in lower-end recording studios. a few years later i left that worn-thin lifestyle and went to get a JD and MBA. i applaud you fellas for figuring out the game so early. just as long as you don't have any regrets later for not having tried some crazy-*** schidt while you were still young and it wouldn't have mattered much - that's the stuff mid-life crises are made of, and i wouldn't wish that pathetic state of being on anyone.

good on all of you, though.

Man I love your car, the rims are sweetie. I just purchase a CL500 less than a month ago. The dealer had a few CL600 & CL55 on the lot that could afford but after I saw the walnut wood/light brown interior I couldn't settle for black or silver. Congrats

Hey Sport,
Notice the picture was taken at night Also, was taken on a Saturday evening before i went out.... not sure how many ppl work saturday nights in their office.... but thats ok if u do... With that said - surely u can understand that I was merely showing my mercedes the same way as the poster showed his CL 55, which is hot
