I'm from Houston, but currently in Lincoln attending UNL.
I don't drive an MB, but MB is a big part of my family.
And... I'm on a lot of different car forums because I just love all sorts of cars.
My parents currently have an '03 SL55 and an '08 S550.

I'm in Lincoln. I'm usually out on O street somewhere on Friday and Saturday nights.

Is the driver an Asian guy? Is it really a C55?

Yes, the driver is an Asian guy.
I am unsure of whether or not it is really a C55 though.
it "appears" to be one, but that doesn't say much.

I'd be down for that. I don't have an MB, but... it's all good.
I hate how there is such a major lack of any type of car scene in Lincoln.
I'm from Houston so I'm used to being part of a huge car scene.

There's a car scene, just not the one you want to belong in. Unless you drive an 80's/90's Honda.

But starting something up, that would be great.

Looks like it's gonna be a long cold winter but I'd be happy to help set something up come spring time. We used to have a very solid import scene in Lincoln/Omaha, but I have heard it's dwindled significantly.

The weather is definitely warming up a bit.
I'm still hesitant to take my car out though until everything is perfectly clear, haha.

there are some decently quick cars around lincoln, but for every one decent car there are at least 15 ****box slow ugly hondas. I have had an eclipse here in lincoln for the last few years, it has been a fun project, but I am planning to get a mb some time in the next year. I kinda feel bad though as I work at Lexus.

Can't go wrong with either one, lol. I'm looking into either a W211 E55, or W215 CL55 for my next car.

Did you know there is a guy in town that has a W221 S65 AMG? It is maroon.

Yea lol, I was very surprised. When I saw it I thought it was just a regular S-Class until I saw the V12 Bi-Turbo badge on the fender.

If you are talking the Barolo Red S65, I just saw the owner, and he also drives a designo 08 SL65 (he was gassing it up), has a dinan stage 4 m3, and his wife has a mini cooper...... he started a software company a while back and sold it to mac for biiiiiiiiig bucks.
