S55 Yearly Differenced: 2004 vs. 2005 vs. 2006
Hey All,

I'm considering the purchase of a 2004 S55. I can't seem to find much about the differences between the 2003+ S55s from year to year. Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

2004 has different phone system. You can add 'bluetooth with a puck' (cheaper). 2005 + 2006 uses MHI cradle. Better phone system.

2006 gets S65 19" Wheels without dark gray paint.

TSB is shorter for 2005 and 2006 compare to 2004.
