2010 E550C - Palladium: Welcome Home
Got delivery of a CPO 2010 E550 Coupe, Palladium Silver with Black interior, P2 package, AMG appearance.
Transported across the continent. A 2,500 mile piggy-back ride. Montway transport did a very good job. It even arrived a day earlier than scheduled.
I had a very good experience with the Sales guy, Arman at Mercedes Beverly Hills. Very patient and responsive. Wish I could say the same think about their Finance guy, TJ. But that is another story.
She runs and looks great. She's going for a trip to the MB Boston dealer for some minor stuff: passenger power headrest not lowering electronically, check the driver's bottom seat cool ventilation fan.
Improvements pending:
- replace unsightly orange side-markers with clear ones from eBay
Improvement considerations:
- replace 18" six spoke AMG with 2013 E63 19" 5 dual spoke ones, 255 fronts and 285 back. Either Contis or Michelin SSs
- replace steering wheel with either C63 or E63 drop-in replacement
- get cover
If anyone has any recommendations or experiences with MB of Boston. please let me know.
