Greetings...

I am new to the mbworld site and wanted to say hello. I just picked up an 06 E55 and am eager to start modding. I look forward to being a part of this board.

It was actually very pleasant based on the purchase. I'll get back to you after I have the car serviced. What negative experiences did you have?

Mileage was 37K...it has the basic setup with nav. I need to get a iPod integration kit and Bluetooth adapter...any suggestions? I searched and there were hundreds of threads on each.

Awesome bike

On Murray Motors FWIW:

My only quarrel with murray is their body shop taking 2.5 months to get my car back to me.... Still waiting and getting the run around every week...

That being said their dealership and service is top notch. I will always get my beast serviced there and will do business with them.

I will however consider another body shop in the future

Nice rides. Owned a busa a few years ago with a PTR motor in it (PTR did the motors for the Aust Suzuki Superbikes), which was getting me about 240rwhp. Nice bike but I was either going to end up in jail or dead so I went from that to a Husky motard which was "interesting" to say the least.

One of my best friends who currently owns 6 MBs in Denver has got run around by their service and parts over the years, so no longer deals with them.

I see you have run your Busa at Bandimere.
