E55T with AMG 19's

A couple of people have asked me to post a couple of more pictures of our E55T with 19" rims so here are a couple.

Looks great, but thanks to you (and the car partially hidden in the 2nd pic) , I'm asking about preordering a CLS55 with the 030 performance package, whenever it makes the option list. See what you started? LOL

IMO, the AMG 19's on the E55T make a great-looking car even better.

I agree, the 19's just make the E55T. We now have 8500 miles and counting.

The kill list is just about too long to post at this point. Got myself a terribly driven Saleen this afternoon.......

Kim, I am NOT posting these pictures to make you any more mad than you already are for not getting the car yet! Hang in there!!!!!

The CLS with the 030 package is going to be a rocking combination! It is funny how many people that see the CLS55 in person like it so much more than in pictures. I still think that they do not do it justice.

You mean this car? Enjoy! Just finished cleaning them all up today......

Beautiful!!!!! I have the same wheels on my SL55 with 295x30x19 Michelins on the rear and think they truly set the car off. Congratulations

What's the latest scoop? When are you expecting the wagon to arrive?

It will be well worth the wait. Your dealer should be making this up to you! I am really getting sick of all of the crap that goes with the MB dealers. Most are not worth a darn.

Technically, does anyone EVER have enough AMG's? I know we don't have #2 yet and Wolf is already thinking about #3. I think I'll insist on Euro pickup for the next one.

I am of the opinion that more is wayyyyyyyy better when t comes to AMG's. They all serve a purpose and I am very lucky to have a wife that supports my addiction.

Wolf,

It looks like you need something with a Bi-Turbo V12 since you have a NA 55 and will have a Kompressor 55.

I know, you are thinking of an SL65, CL65 or S65........

Thanks for the pics, Schiz - spoke to my salesperson today about the 030 package. As soon as the option shows up, the order gets placed.

I don't know but everytime we pass a CL55 on the street you make sure to point it out and let me know how nice looking it is In reality his next toy will likely be an Altima SER. Not sure why but it will.

One of my neighbors owns a Nissan dealership. I followed his Nissan Altima SER w/ dealer plates out of the subdivision a few weeks ago. Curious about the car, I kept pace as he turned left, then right and and saw him nail it trying to lose me on an extended straight. Of course I followed suit and saw him smack the side of his head when I blew by him.

It obviously does not compare with either the E55T ot the SLK55 but for days when you need something with 4 seats and the wife won't let you take the E it's a nice car. At least that's what he tells me

Funny you should say that as I told him only half kidding that he should get a C32 with the hatchback option.

Looks like it is. All the Kompressor 5.5's use the same engine covers.
