Take care
I very seriously considered changing out my grille for the newer center star one but I feel like the older style makes it look more like an E class and the center star looks like a C class to me...

Just my opinion!

Thanks.
Just found a set of illuminated door sills.....but the pricing is all over the map on ebay....from 50 bucks to 450. Just trying to figure out what's different between them.

Well congrats back at cha. I loved that little Aero I had, I thought it was a rocket, but this E550 is the starship enterprise. ENGAGE!!

You can also lock the car by touching the exterior handle when exiting the car. Needless to say the only reason you would need your keys is to start the car unless you have the button. Awaited looking car, I really like the color.
Yes...the pics do show the key, but when I test drove it and then bought the car, it had the start button already there.
Thanks

I have a "Dakota brown" ML. The color makes it special.

Your choice looks great, enjoy it.

I loved my Saabs, from my 99 back in the late 70's to my Aero I just dumped a few weeks ago.
Funny thing, but as I get used to this E550, it reminds me of the smooth powerful acceleration of my Saab, only difference is, is that the E550 keeps on accelerating...lol
