Talking Long time lurker sayin hi!

My family has owned our 04 E55 since new, just saying hi! we are getting into the tuning scene now. We got a set of S65 rims on it about two years ago? got a killer deal on them (98% tread life with Pilot sports for 3K shipped) as for immediate plans? (K2 package coming along with some other goodies (euro impact strips, rear CF diffuser, front splitter) Ours is a 04 Opal black 55K with around 19K on the clock. Any idea how many opal blacks there are out there? i have yet to see another one! here is a pic just so i dont get beaten to death for a post with no pic of the car lol! Shout out to benzoboi for all the help and letting me pick his mind!

Hope so! i mean value for money it seems insane. We had a E430 before this and some ppl im talking to are saying its as drastic a jump from the W210 E430 to W211 E55 and if thats the case oh crap!
