Saw my first S550 on the road today

I had seen it in the showroom before, but never on the road before today. All I have to say is WOWOWOWOWOWOW. It was a black S550 with the sport package, and it looked absolutely stunning. I saw it mostly from the rear and it looked like nothing else on the road and really stood out. It didn't hurt that there was a hot soccer mom driviing it either, but it was amazing...

The only thing was that there was a small dent right on the side character line on the right side, which I was afraid of since there are no rub strips, but it looked very good on the road and especially in black.

I saw one at my dealership the other day. Sitting next to the CLS 55 and SLK 55 it looked in its place i must say you haven't seen how nice these cars look until you've seen one in person.

I actually saw a another one last night. It was sliver. I saw the lights coming towards me and then when it got close I notcied it was the New S. The headlights at night looked pretty neat. Didn't get much of a better look though....

I also went to the dealer around my way, R&H Motors in MD and took a look at the S550...I must say it looks great...the pictures do not do it justice. It was also my first time seeing the CLS up close....and damn...that is one small car...way too small for me anyway.

S550
i just disagree with the shape of the foglights its kind of odd looking otherwise everything else is stunning

its not noticeable on silver but on black it really sticks out
