Congratulation for the new car, you'll be chased!!!

AustinGuy 04-05-2008 02:04 AM

Very nice!

I'll be picking up mine tomorrow!! I'm a little nervous..... and excited :D:p:

I wish it would come with those Brabus MB VI's that I want :bow:

Unfortunately, there's no Brabus shop here in Austin - I'll have to have the rims and lowering module shipped to me. Maybe I'll ask the dealship tomorrow - if they can install the lowering module :nix:

I guess we'll see.

Have you picked up your car yet?

AsianML 04-06-2008 11:37 AM

Congrats! The S550 is a great car, but why did you trade the E63 for it?

Chucky300 04-06-2008 12:23 PM

I love how S and CL cars have that greenish window. From the glazing. It adds a very sporty look.

IluvS500 04-06-2008 02:44 PM

that is most definitely a beautiful fleet of cars you have there.

I picked up my car yesterday....

Obsidian Black / Savanna-Cashmere int (P3, wood steering, AMG pak, iPod kit).

Okay now let me go back to reading the 1000 pg. owners manual.

Just kidding.

I have to go back and watch the MB/Harmon Kardon DVD

Will post pics. in the next few days.

I have to say, the gap betw. the tires and wheel well is not as bad as I thought.... Ofcourse, I didn't know that there was a switch to lower and raise the car either!!:eek::eek:

carsnob 04-07-2008 08:34 PM

Congrats and enjoy! Quite a difference from the E class eh?

j_belll 04-07-2008 08:48 PM

congratulations! the W221 is a very luxurious car :)

08 s550 4matic
 
i also picked up my new 08 s550 4matic,and i must say its quite a car.I have had a number of BMW 7 series and this my first MB.On what i have seen so far the MB is hands down a much better car.The fit and finish on the MB is perfect.Time will tell all,but hell i never keep them over 3 years anyway,so i will just enjoy the ride.

much appreciated sir.

I thought Obsidian Black was no longer available? I do see it on the MB site but have heard others say that is no longer orderable? What's the deal?

Interesting how accurate they got it down; only the foglamps are different.

Oh.... My.......... Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

hehe

yes - that came out of me really quick!

That is such a stunning pair of wheels... It really makes the car look EXTREMELY aggressive - and just SO classy at the same time.

I would be truly surprised if ANYONE feels different...

A few questions!!!

1) How is the ride on 21s? Did it get sportier? Bumpier?

2) How much if you don't mind me asking were the wheels / tires together? (since you had to get 21" tires to wrap around the wheels)

3) Are you sure you want to tint the windows? The metallic glaze almost gives it a richer look...thats just my opinion...

Drive it in the BEST of health !!!!!

Actually the ride on the 21s is not that bad ! It is better than I thought !
The price on wheels and tires together is about $5800 with Michelin PS 2 which I think is very good.
