Out and About

Been an interesting past few days. Saw more W210 E55s in the last 2 days than I have in the last 3 or 4 months.

#1 Silver E55 on 87 in San Jose driving toward airport. Some younger guy late 20s to early 30s driving like Miss Daisy. I didnt know E55s could go that slow on the freeway. Saw him from way back and caught up. Tried to give him a thumbs up but he would not look my way, so I punched it and moved on.

Now I dont know about you guys, but I can spot a E class AMG from a mile way and I always especially try to give a friendly gesture to the few of us in the know about these cars.

#2 Silver E55 waiting to get out of the parking lot after the Warriors/Raptors game at Oracle Arena last night. I'm not a silver fan, but damn that color looks nice at night! Older guy lighting up a stogie as he was crusing out the parking lot. When I saw it I had a little regret in taking BART, until that is I left when the BART came and the parking lot was still full.

If these are any of my Bay Area brothers on this board, here's me giving you a .

SoCal brothers, I will be in the Irvine and Anaheim area for a convention from Friday through Sunday, so if you see a black E55 on the 5 or the 405 please feel free to cruise up and say hello!

'99 E55 AMG
Yo! I live and drive alot all around the East Bay....You may spot me in my black/black '99 E55...it'll be the one with the "blacked out monoblock wheels"!

Hard to miss my car...it has a rather cool looking trunk lip spoiler that a friend got for me in EU....very discrete...but everyone seems to like the look.

FYI there is a silver '02 E55 that has 19" Brabus wheels and it has been lowered very nicely...a bit too low for my taste, but everytime I see the guy driving it I admire how cool it looks!

If you passed me and waved...I would certainly notice your E55 and wave back!
