Wheels are in. I just loaded the tires and wheels in the car so hopefully I'll be able to get them put on tomorrow.

Soooo glad I went with these!

The 285's in the rear look killer! Bigger tires and wheels may look smaller but i still get a good ride. Perfectly flush. Will take more when they are done.

The S-class is far from being an exotic car....even the S600, S63, & S65. Lambo's, Ferrari's, high end Porsche's, Bugatti's, McLaren's, even Aston Martins....those are exotics. Perhaps the high end Black Series Benz' might squeak in....but certainly none of the S-class models.


BTW, I NEVER see any other S600's around in the Chicago burbs....but I certainly don't consider my car exotic because of that.

I'm at the dealer now for the COMAND update....fingers crossed this time and then they are going to wash it. I'll get pics after that.

I pulled in to service and when they started it up that growl is so nice.

Holy wow!! The sales manager just walked past me and said you have the beautiful V12 correct. i said yes and he said well follow me....he is trying to get me to sell my s550 and s600 and buy the Maybach s600. He just took me on a tour of it....WOW. There is a tentative buyer but he will know for sure by Tuesday. This car is the king of cars. I just called and told my wife and she said DON'T BUY ANYMORE CARS!!

Even if I decided to have a car payment after putting 50-75k down I can't imagine the payment on 125k...nor to mention my wife telling me adios.

The update is currently running...I can't even focus on anything now but that maybach.

OK cool. I've been a little on edge because I ordered some wheels yesterday and they will be staggered. I see more and more people are getting their wheels that way on the forum.

After you change wheels, you have to update Command?

No, my comand in the s600 was the old version that did not have video, live traffic, etc. I got it updated to the new version.
