Yes coming soon my 2nd AMG!
I am adding a 2nd AMG to my stable.
It will not be the last AMG I add either!

Will post pictures once I have my new beast!
As you can guess since I am posting here, it will be an SL55!

2005 SL55 AMG
Too much is never enough.

Congrats on the new car. They are addictive. After I bought my SL55 I started thinking how much I would also like a CLS55 as a daily driver. Suddenly the 325 lb-ft in my Lexus feels like I am pushing a skate board around town.

Enjoy your new smile machine!

2006 SL65 ///AMG - GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN: 2005 E55; 2002 ML55; 2001 CLK55; 1992 BMW 850i; 1991 M5
CONGRATS!

My first AMG was a 2001 CLK55 in Black. I dropped her with H&R Springs and found a set of 18" monoblocks. I also put on an Eisenmann exhaust and CF airbox and she was a beast. I have always thought that the 2000-2002 CLK was one of the coolest looking cars Benz ever made. I traded her in on an E55 and just traded the E in on an SL65. I truly wish I had them all, but I am not too proud to admit that I have neither the discretionary income nor the garage space to own all the cars of my dreams simultaneoulsy. So I rotate! But I think I will have the SL monster for quite a while. Again, congrats on the stable mate for your ultra cool CLK!
