Newbie saying Hello
Hey all,
I just wanted to say hello and that i plan on getting an E55 (not sure on year yet) by the end of the year (hopefully sooner). I come from mostly a Ford background with owning many 5.0's (both NOS and Boosted) and had a Nasty Lightning and 03 Cobra. I have always loved these cars and finally got to ride in one and there are really no words to describe it.
So, i will be doing my homework and reading the boards and cannot wait to be apart of the E55 Family.

Welcome!!!
I did wanna give you a heads up that you are about to enter a world where modding will be nothing short of SHOCKING price wise.
Just did some quick price comparisons.
Lightning crank pulley uprade from ASP 200$, on our cars 800$...AND THAT'S CHEAP. I bought my crank pulley from Evotech and she ran nearly 2K.
Lightning headers roughly 500-700$.....E55, well I will be selling my used Kleemann headers shortly for around 1500$. New they are about 3k.
Really sucks, but it's the price we pay to play.
You are gonna love the E55!! Incredible car.
