E55
New E55 Member

Just wanted to introduce my self:

Just picked up my first AMG and it's a E55. I've posted a lot on the 230, 209, and 208 sections since those were my previous cars, but I'm proud to be finally joining the ranks of the 211 AMG members. I already have a couple mods planned out for the audio and e63 front end conversion, so I look forward to hearing everyone's inputs in my future build.

Thnx! This will be my daily driver and love it already. It is way more comfortable than my SL which was my DD for almost 3 years. I'll get some pics up as soon as I get her cleaned up...had to drive back from the dealer through snow showers. BTW like the way your car is headed, LT Headers

Haha, I've been searching the the e55 section the last couple weeks and see what you mean. I guess I'll be safe as long as I don't sell a car w/o pics or a higher price than the market is.
