He got the 0-60 speed wrong...it is 5.4 and he states 6.4. But otherwise a nice neutral review with some humor...fair and balanced as the saying goes...:-)

Hey, NJ, you ain't getting those ugly rims on your new S550, are you?

For the love of God, I hope not. I'll have to cancel my pending phone call in May of 2007.

No PH...I will be getting the standard 18" 9 spoke alloys. The 19" multispokes just don't do it for me either.

Cool, I'm turning my phone back on and refusing to eat until May 2007, the phone rings, and I go to Vegas to pick up my S550!

Excellent wheel choice, BTW.
