Video & Pics: So Cal. E55 Weekend Cruise

It was an awesome experience to cruise with some of the freshest E55 in So. Cal, along with other members on the board. The video is in Quicktime format (25 megs). Near the end, you'll see how fast Vic's car pulled away. (Right click the link and Save Target As to download or it'll take forever to stream)

Thank God you guys didn't run into an M5. I can imagine some type of AMG diamond around the poor guy (4 car formation). He's be in terror.

No kidding!! I wasn't rolling in a M5 but being sandwiched by 5 AMGs, with their quads howling, in ATTACK formation to and from San Diego, I felt like a hijacked DC9 being escorted to safety. That was quite an experience, I can attest to that. Bro, I had to crank my stereo to the max to pacify the howling.

It was a pleasure getting to know and ride with you guys: Vic, james, Tj, Sun, Jay, Frank, and Andy. Look forward to doing it again. Next time, I might want to hitch a ride with one of you boys to get an AMG experience. Of course, shout out to Carlos for being a great host and putting together a great meet. Until next time.

2003 E55
Really impressive cars.
One of the silver cars has the rear valance (panel between the exhausts) painted silver and the other silver car has the valance black. My 2003 E55 has the black valance. Was the car with the silver valance painted 'after market'?
I like the look

I like the look
I think it is a Wald rear valance attached to OE bumper.

You are the man! Thanks for the very nice pics you've got there. Those fwy shots are . It was great meeting you all! And the cruise on the way back didn't disappoint either! We should do it again sometime. I believe Carlos is setting up another GTG/meet sometime in Sept in Irvine. Details to follow. Again nice meeting you all!

awesome pics.

i noticed a few of the cars with temp/no plates on the rears (evosport, dealer, etc), did you guys get hassled at all? whats the reason for rolling with those plates unless you just bought your car?
