Lightbulb One 212 light.......

hello w212 men!

The day is offical! The few mods came off, the stock parts went back on(shiver), and the car has been returned to the dealer for resale!(traded it's value towards new cls)
This was truly one hell of a car and I enjoyed it very much....more so in the past several weeks alone........
I will miss it but will still have the wonderful w212 in the 550 form
I still love this 550 as it was my firstborn haha......
Sad indeed to see it pull off, but damn, those sidemarkers are horrible, LOL

you'll be missed nightmare

GOING

GOING

GONE!!!!!!

I believe your missing the "6.3AMG" down the side of the car, before the front doors?

Congrats. IMO having 2 of the same core car is a waste of experiencing some variety. You'll have a much more interesting time with the lovely E550 and its new stablemate to contrast it (even though the CLS is an E-Class underneath, they've got different presence and characters).

Congrats, W212 is the best looking car in present cars not just in Mercedes Benz model line up . So, you should keep your E550 and I like to see your messages too
CLS is a different class ,front end is cool but tail lights look weird

19.5 CPM is pretty good on the E63 I am surprised. With the cost of fuel these days only about 1 cent better on our ML BTC but I somehow think we don't drive it as aggressively...
