E55 AMG
That car is so bogus. The V8 Kompressor badges are too low, and the car doesn't even have a Kompressor. Furthermore, it doesn't even seem to have the 5.5L normally aspirated AMG engine either, just the engine cover ripped off from a S55. And the picture of the white car doen't have the AMG front spoiler. Poor attempt!

those aren't even the real W211 E55 wheels...

BTW, does anyone know the wheel style number for the W211 E55? Thanks.

Hmmmm, the engine shown does not have a kompressor, so it can't be the white one, has to be the silver.

Who in their right mind would bid on this abortion of an expensive luxury car. Aren't these bidders suspicious of the real E55 photos (silver with 2 tone interior) dispersed amongst the abortion photos?

C'mon guys...lay off, posers will always be around...

I always dream of running into these guys in any of my cars and just bury them to the ground in a race.

All show and no go is a way of life for many so let them do as they please.

The real car people like us will just laugh at them.....haha

Thanks guys for the warm welcome!

My g/f also has a lime green Beetle

That C32 looks sweet! My bro wanted to get one but it was too pricey so he opted for a 5-speed IS300 for now.

see ya,
rick

yeah, the C32's price can be steep, but compare to my friend's fully loaded 03 SMG M3 mine is $4000 dollar cheaper out of door. But mine doesn't have Nav, so it'll be $2k cheaper if I had the Nav. I was surpriced that although the base price for the M3 is a lot lower, but with equal amount of options it will match up or exceed the C32 in price.

is yours a manual or SMG?

Mine is a 6-speed....I hate SMG personally

since it is basically an automatic....(yes I know the technology is much better) but also much more prone to failure.

If I wanted to tap paddles, I'll just get an auto.

Too bad you aren't local...would luv to check out your C32....it is one clean and tough looking car!

late,
rick
