I might be back,but this time with a Vengance! :)
What up Guys.
It's been a while since i posted here at mbworld.
I have owned a Beautifull 2004 CLK55 and loved the car,due to some trouble i had to sell it and it was the worst feeling ever.
Now,i'm thinking of getting a 2004 E55 Black,Black With Pano-roof,Nav,Keyless-Go,Suede Headliner.Beautifull Car with all the maintenance records since day one.
However there is a second Car i'am interested in,and yes i do understand that mostly everyone here will say E55 hands down,but i need to be able to transport some clients with my Cars(i do personal security,and a lot of times i use my own car)that is why i'm thinking of getting a 2005 BMW X5 4.8is
Drove the Car and it is amazingly quick for a SUV.Never as fast as E55 but,really comfortable,good looking and quick!
I have not posted anything on the BMW forums because i know how BMW owners are.They are very one sided.I'am posting here because i've been a member here for a while and i know that i will get some good input on the E55.I have a good feeling about this car and honestly im not worried,especially after doing research and finding out that the E55's are reliable cars.

2006 Mercedes E55
the beemer is nice but not gonna get anymore power out of it which would bore me.
If you really want an SUV I say get a Cayenne Turbo or Range Rover Sport Supercharged. Both the same price range as an 06 E55 and at least you can get more power out of them when it doesn't scare you anymore.
if your driving clients its hard to beat the classs of an E55. They will think you are driving them in a 100k car and your little secret is you picked it up for 1/3rd that.
BTW PANO rocks!

2005 BLK/BLK E-Double Nickel.
BMW LOVER/ AMG OWNER ADVICE.....
Okay so here are the pros and cons for your situation
x5 4.8is
Pros. Spacious, pretty fast and handles good for a SAV, comes standard fully loaded.
Cons. Still only seats 5.
W211 E55 AMG
Pros. Great In-line performance, Better Technologies, better Engine in terms of up-grades. seats the same amount as the X5.
Cons. Cornering, Rear passenger room is horrible compared to an X5.
So my advice is, if you always have to transport people, X5.
If you occasionally have to tansport people, E55.
