Hello-Introduction/New 55 Owner!!

Hey!!

My name is Warren; been a member for a few months now and have been sorta sitting on the sidelines. I am def. a huge car fanatic and have had a pretty nice array of cars. I just stepped out of a V10 Audi S6 which I had modified and loved but felt was lacking soul...It had power, traction and all the amenties you could imagine but even with the incredible non-resonated sound of my exhaust just did not really keep my heart. So even though I had her 6 months--she had to go--_>
Now for the last few months I fell in love with the AMG's...I have heard all about the nightmares of service problems and issues with dealers but after doing my own research and using the search button I found that getting a aftermarket warranty or buying a car with one is the way to go...That and finding a dependable mechanic.
I love the E63amg looks-bumpers and the new amenties inside but I really wanted the supercharger and the ear to ear smile when you smoke anything in and outside of its class...So I went 55.

Here is my new ride getting picked up today. Unfortunately it will be 10-12 lonely days till I see her


2005 E55-White with Pano-Modified and also has warranty!!!

I picked this up from a great member here--Jeff or JmanE55 who was nothing but a gentlemen and communicated great and made the deal so much better

Now here is the fun part!!--->Check out the what this baby is putting down to the ground


The car from what I have seen and heard is just amazing! I am basically not sleeping at this point waiting for the car to get to me..>I live here in Orlando, Fl and Jeff lives in San Diego, CA....So unless anyone has a way to teleport the car to me which I would pay handsomely or I guess the old fashion way was to drink your face off till it gets here---I will be having some little sleep...

Glad to join the club and be a part of the great heritage..
