WHo else loves there ML55

I just took my ML55 To Brabus for some engine modification and brake, and damn guys it runs better, they said that it cranks out over 450 horsepower and 500 ft. pounds of torque, so guys if you got an ML55, i suggest taking it to brabus to have them tweak it a little, And the brakes are much better, they have a better feel to them now. hey i like the car a lot

PS-the only I dont like about it is the squeaks,creaks,and rattles and a slightly "shuddering" ride

Ml 2005

Gentlement, I'm certainly interested in the NEW ML 2005 model. I think you should be too. Assuming the new ML 2005 has been modified in terms of mechanical features, chasis, steering, ride stability...etc... is that true by the way? I havn't tried it yet.
