Hello,
I have been researching and researching and researching, and after selling my M5 a few years back, I missed the big 4-door supercar and therefore 3 weeks ago decided to pick up a leftover 2008 CLS63 from an ohio dealer. So far i LOVE THIS CAR ...I only got the windows tinted, but plan on doing the clear lights upfront, taking out the charcoal filters and adding HRE rims. The only issue I have had is that my phone will not download the contacts to the command system,but i think it is due to the version on my blackberry.....

The power is addicting, the luxury is expansive, the joy is everlasting...thank you MB .

I hope to learn and contribute to this board asmuch as I can, this is my first benz, following 3 BMWs and oneporsche.

 

Welcome!

You are going to enjoy this car tremendously.

Be careful on those cold Ohio streets, car looks dangerous, hehe

 

HEHEHE, thanks, I actually life in arlington VA, I drove it back 500miles that saturday, then woke up sunday morning and hit 95 South and stopped when I saw the welcome to south carolina sign...lol

 

Beautiful, congrats!

 

welcome
good move,enjoy.

 

Welcome and nice color combo

 

Thank you guys for all of your nice welcomes. I didnt have a chance to do the charcoal filters yet....by the way does the sneeky ecu reset workon our cars, or is it only on the 55 engines?
Thanks

 

Welcome Diplomat. The car looks great, I'm in Odenton, Md but work in DC so maybe when the weather breaks we can hookup.

 

You know that if you had bought a black car, it would have had 5 additional hp, right?

 

^ hahaha

if you dont mind me asking what kind of discount were you able to get...Ive heard 15-20k off sticker

 

Enjoy the addiction.

Suggest changing out the yellow side marker lenses for clears lenses that can be had from ebay. Will make the beast look cleaner.

 

Very nice! Enjoy it!

 

Welcome and enjoy her in good health.

Lets the MODs begin.

 

 

Welcome, great choice !

 

You are right, basically I got 15k off (invoice)and all options for free...P2, ipod, parktronic, keyless go, so total a little over 20k off...

 

I'm in frederick, count me in too

 

AGREED , going toorder them today for $55 bucks,well worth it i think. How are the ebay quality ones though?

do i need the chrome light bulbs

 

The quality is ok. No problem here. Get the chrome bulbs due to the fact that a yellow colored bulb can be seen thru the clear lens.

I found installation easy if the wheels are remove to gain access to the inside wheel well liner/cover. This allows the liner/cover to be pulled back to gain access to the back side of the side marker light unit which can be removed easily and swapped out.

 

Was it brand new or a demo with some mileage

 

New,never titled, 200 miles. Was on the lot for 10 months.

thank you for the light bulb answer

 

Nice car. Welcome.

 

Ok. Your in......can't wait until the weather breaks.

 

Count me in. I'm in Bowie. And welcome
