E55 then E63, now back to an E55
Drove a new bi-turbo 550 this morning.....
SICK !!!
First of all, the car is beautiful. Stunning, gorgeous, perfect LOL.
I liked the old CLS, but did not LOVE it.
And the naturally aspirated V8 motors were always underpowered (I am a die hard AMG guy)
However the new car with 4.6 bi-turbo, blue fuel efficiency (whatever that is), 403 horse/440ish torque, leather dash, beautiful leather with stitching on seats, more rear leg room & rear cargo space than old CLS, LED headlights, etc - make this car a winner folks !! Surprisingly fast & VERY smooth as well (ala S-class)
I would even buy the non-AMG version, which is saying a LOT. Can't wait to see what the AMG is like, especially with performance pack....
I am certainly jealous of you new owners, congrats....
I know what my next car is / what I'm buying next !!
