Finally Here - My New SLK55 AMG
 
After a long wait (including a few weeks hold at the VPC) it's finally here. Only have about 70 miles on it so far but this car is much better than I remembered from my SLK55 AMG test drive in May.

I clayed the car and applied two layers of Zaino Z2 (with ZFX).

I am looking for 19" wheels. I like the deep lip look but it will be difficult with the size of the front brakes.

Enjoy the pics.

That's beautiful even if you keep it as is...The SLK55 seems to be the only car that I like those rims on, but a shoe w/a 3-4 inch lip would be nice, too :cool: !

Enjoy the new ride!

Apologies if it has been discussed before, but is the chrome trim surrounding the taillights new for 06?

Nope, head and tail light chrome surround is aftermarket.

AMGfan: Thanks for the comments. Not sure which wheels I'm going to get but I'll post pics when I get them installed.

vantage: They are after market.

FIXEDupW209: Thanks for the comments.

ricky.agrawal: Thanks!

Evil Duffman: Pimp daddy :v

theitalianjob: Thanks, I'm planning to change the wheels to 19" diameter, something with a deep lip (3 1/2"). Going to try to go 10" wide in rear. Some type of exhaust mod. I really like the stock sound most of the time but would like it louder under full throttle. Plan on some type of intake mod and performance chip.

pazu: Thanks and congratulations on your new car to be. Post some pics when you get it. I travel to HK (Kowloon) several times a year maybe I will see your car.

Looks good! Now, debadge the rear but leave the 3-star emblem on :y
