Where's the 550's?

I don't think so, but I've seen plenty of them at dealerships. I'm very jealous of these cars, it has all the upgrades I've really ever wanted (and with warranty). Imagine a 75 shot of n2o with a car like this, it would be such a killer.

And believe me when I tell you.. With that 7spd tranny.. you can twist the rubber right off those 17's.. I actually turned off my ESP. and did Donut(s)..( I'm waaay too old for that stufff ) but when you think about ...DAMN!!!!! this is supposed to be the "lesser" of the two.. Hmmm well.. okay... LOL.

S550
That was my thought exactly.... why pay so much more for not really so much more?? that was my feeling then and still is. I can chip my 350 for a lot less.

CLK550, Sports Suspension, Black Opal
Got my CLK550
I just got my CLK550 with Sports suspension. The twin AMG pipes give a nice sound. The sports suspension really makes a difference in handling. Tight and suppled without being stiff - just a little sharper. The engine is just shocking, The power is incredible. Very civilized at 1/4 throttle and a screaming hammer when pushed. Wonderful car.
My car: Black Opal, Black interior, Black Ash Burl and white instruments.
