I can't wait to see some pics of your fully zainoed brand new CLS500!!! Does it feel like a much larger car compared to the C...I know it is larger, but does it feel like it with its coupe profile!!!

Sorry guys, this was very unlike me not to have pics up by now, I been so busy I just didn't have a second to take any. I know if someone else posted this i would be saying where are the pics already? lol

I am having the windows tinted Friday, I will wait to zaino it till the weekend since they dirty the car. I will try for pics before though.

As far as the car feeling larger then my C55, yes it does, it actually feels much larger, and drives more like a luxury car then the C55. It is much more comfortable, quieter, and smoother and more refined then my C55. Of course the CLS feels much larger and heavier in the handling dept. and is not as sporty feeling as the C55.

Overall the car is amazing, it feels like am in a coupe with the narrow windows and swept back windshield. I still cannot get over how beautiful the car is. I love the side profile and the front is awesome.

Ok the tint was delayed since this stupid hurricane we will get in Florida. So here are pics anyway. Sorry they are not good in my garage. It just stopped raining out and i didn't want to pull it out and get wet.

Much better pics to come after the tint, and when i get the side markers painted. I am also thinking of getting the AMG spoiler for the trunk lid.

That CLS is one awesome car, congratulations!! Sorry, If I sounded pushy asking for pics. I would rather wait and see it clean than you hurry and put up crummy pics...which by the way it looks extremely clean in those pics. So, it sounds like it drives the way it should or better considering its size and weight, which is great!! It doesn't look as big as it is! I love the looks and you have the perfect color combo IMO!!! What's going to happen with the C55...are you keeping it to??? Enjoy the car!!

Awsome looking car! Perfect color combo. I think its probably one of the best looking Mercedes ever made.

Curious, does it come with aluminum pedals? I know nothing about the CLS AMG package.

I agree, the car is awesome looking in person.

And no, there are no aluminum pedals, i thought there would have been. The AMG package is just the full body kit, (front, sides and rear) AMG engraved exhaust tips, AMG wheels with wider tires then the stock CLS. 285/35/18 rear, 255/40/18 front. Also has the steering wheel has gearshift buttons. Thats about it for 5 grand, lol.

Wow, that color combo looks awesome.

Looking at the front and the rear of those 2 cars, it looks almost like they are close in length. Is that so?

Also, any updated pics?

The CLS looks much bigger then my C55 in person. I just checked the lengths, and the C55 is 181.8 in. the CLS is 194 in.

Haha i know that would look kinda sick.


Problem is, after the body kit i would need wheels, after the wheels i would need brakes, after the brakes i need exhaust, after exhaust i would need a supercharger then some ICE.

It will never end, so maybe i shouldn't start? :p

Now you are in South Florida. Isn't it against the law NOT to have these mods?
