Thanks bud. I take it as yours is the same?

i THINK i saw one in the same colour earlier today near London, may have been a shade lighter. But here in the UK i dont think thats a standard colour for the W220, i think about 90% of them are Silver. Very nice colour either way, really does seem to suit the car.

Never seen one in that colour before, sure is one of the best. Whats the colour name mate?

Any more pics?

Thanks.
As the previous post said, its flint gray metallic. I have never been really partial to gray. I've always favored red or white but this car in this color is growing on me! I don't have any more photos at this time but next time i have it cleaned i'll take some more and try to post them.

Thank you!

It's a de-badged car and it's a European vehicle, thus side markers are not required by law and the S55 is available in SWB.

There are some really nice S-class cars in this thread. All you have to do is lower them a little and pop on some nice wheels and you have a player.

It has just about everything, minus power rear seats, parktroic and distronic. It does have heated rear seats and power rear window blinds as well as rear side window roller blinds. It has a lot of bells and whistles. I am going away for the weekend and will take pictures of the car next week.

Lovin' the look. I've been toying with the idea of getting new shoes on my car as well and going with black rims.

2000 S430
Hey bud. I was wondering whats what setup you have on your wheels. My rims are the Wald-D21-F model. Can you tell me what size tires you are using? This would be helpful as I bought my brothers car the s430 and would like to have the same setup of tires that you have on your car.

I would like the tires to be a bit more flush to the lip to protect them. from the pic the are sticking out

Thank you.

TRY 5MM, 10MM OR 20MM SPACERS WITH THE CURRENT SETUP...WHATEVER THE OUTCOME AND IF YOU SATISFY WITH THE SETUP...AFTER EITHER TRIM YOUR FENDER OR DOWNSIZE YOUR TIRES SETUP.. EVERY SETUP IS DIFFERENT, WHAT CAN WORKS WITH ME, MIGHT NOT WHAT YOU LIKE.. BTW... IT ALL DEPEND ON YOUR WHEEL OFFSET..

Hey Viet AMG, is that carbon fiber vinyl you have on your mirror? I am thinking of blacking out my white 2005 S55, but wasn't sure if this stuff would like ricey on a benz. Although, I'm just a teen, so a little ricey isn't too bad
