Hello Chris,

Not angry at all, I realize that everyone's taste and style is different. That's the beautiful thing about diversity, you get to experience a multitude of options. So how's the new project going?

It's because the package is just a body kit with AMG written on it, thus it is not a real AMG.

Your plate is saying to enthusiasts that it's a real car tuned by AMG...

BTW I think you're being flamed now

Well his plate doesnt say "AMG" its "AMGZUS" and it doesnt really mean that he is poser, as long as he doesnt badge it then its fine. Because it sounds like if you dont have an AMG then what you cant even say the word AMG?

Hey Robert,

Thanks, I had planned on waxing it and detailing it this past weekend (the weather was suppose to be sunny and 57*F on Saturday) so I could take some high resolution photos, but the weather did not pan out. Once I get a brak in the weather were I can sit back and take about four five hour to do some quality detailing, I'll take some new pictures and post them on the board.



Any luck on the search for the new wheels?

2012 Mercedes Benz S550
2012 S550

Hey all! I'm new to MBW and just wanted to post pictures of my 2012 MB S550. I purchased it for $65,000 (tax + fees included) out the door with 2,650 miles from a non-MB dealer in LA. The previous owner traded the S550 in for a Porsche 911 4S. Long story short the sales associate, who had no clue how to operate the vehicle, was new and agreed on price without checking with his manager. They tried to rescind the contract but that's a story for another day.

This is my first MB vehicle, and I was wondering since it's certified pre-owned and I've already logged 2K miles (ODO: ~4,900 miles) in the span of 2 months, is it prime for a service by a MB dealer (or trusted non dealer mechanic)? Any thoughts or tips would be much appreciated! I absolutely love driving it!

Happy to be part of the MBW family and a proud owner of my first MB!

Wow - nice car and what a great deal ( Edmunds shows your car is worth about $76k retail ! )

Maintenance schedule on a 2012 S550 is every 10k miles ( or once a year ). You can obtain a copy of the maintenance booklet at mbusa.com in the owners support section.

Enjoy your ride - congrats !

Nick

Does it put more strain on the suspension? btw your s-class looks real nice.

I've never had any issues with them at all, the links look almost like the OEM links that you take off the car, but you can adjust them to raise or lower the car. Thanks I appreciate it.
