I hope I wasn't mistaken in what you were saying about the S55? Alright here are the questions: How fun is the car to drive? I have heard the sound system is not so good in the area of bass is this true and is the sound system good or what? Last im not into doing upgrades on the S55 what do u think I think you should just leave it alone sence it is a AMG car.

Thanks

S55 is a beast

It pulls like a mule at any speed youre driving at. The fun factor is off the chart for a big car. It is a big car so in perspective it is dynamic. The sound system is very good although not great. It is a full sounding system, bass is good and treble is bright but not as good as aftermarket systems. But thats all you get, so take it. I would never recommend upgrades to AMG vehicles. Take the body kits and call it a day. The car comes standard with a host of unbelieveable gadgets. The cool seats, although not standard, are a must have. :p
