Not sure of your miles but check or replace the IC pump next time you have service done. Tons of data via search button. The car being new to you, you don't want a failed IC pump feeling normal.

Welcome! Word of advice: use the right pedal more than the left.

I had 2 buddies over there last weekend, definitely not me. My Silver 04 was a few years ago. But I think you were referring to LOCO 05 E55...

Hi all, made the purchase and just awaiting shipment of an 05, with 59K on the odometer. Regarding the extended warranty: I did tons of research on previous posts and got a number for Todd @ Chrysler. However the number that was posted never gets answered (313.865.6237)? Any one have any leads on contact info for him. Looking forward to getting some pics up and starting the enjoy the ride.

I have had the same issue with this guy from Chrysler, horrible sales person.
I ended up purchasing mine via dealer, however I am going to be cancelling and buying through another company, because mb does not cover supercharger
