Talking new member

just joined the forum last month, I have read several pages of post in the s class forum, this is a very informative forum. the tech forum is also very good. this is my first Mercedes, a 2011 s550, which I purchased in October of 2014. with 40,000 miles and factory warranty, purchased a Mercedes Benz 3 year 50,000 mile extended warranty. have done small upgrades to car, replaced front and rear brakes and rotors with drilled rotors and ceramic pads, k and n intake filters, installed mb ghost lights on the front doors, I am also going to have the oem five spoke wheels chromed, and install trunk spoiler. this car is very sharp as it is, so I will keep it in the stock look. I have driven Cadillac's for years, but this is an automobile
