New E55 owner! What's up?
What's up y'all. New E55 owner as of saturday. A lot of valuable information on here so I'd like to thank everyone for helping with my decision. The thing is a beast. I even got my friend who is a chevy guy to say "wow, I need to trade my Z06 in". Lol. Cheers.

Since you've already been epic-ly owned in the Off-Topic forum, I'll let bygones be bygones and simply say welcome to the E55 AMG forum.
Enjoy her in good health.

Thanks guys....pics will come soon. Its flint grey with tinted windows right now. It has 44k miles on it and has every option except the pano roof. I plan on blacking out the chrome trim, badges, grill and my 19" wheels.
I am currently out of town for two weeks for business, but when I get back I will throw some pics up here. Hopefully if the weather gets better I can get the wheels on sometime in march.
@Faast: LOL yeah I've noticed alot of newbies posting threads that have been discussed over and over. EMoving, you have nothing to worry about here! Search function is used significantly.
@FASN8N: Yeah Tbal is right, those coilovers were from my CLK. I have yet to change that part of the sig cuz im super busy. I will change that soon. Sorry for the confusion.
@loungn14: yes we definitely should keep in touch and meet up sometime. Hopefully it gets warmer here fast. I am sick of snow.
@ Benz-o-Rama: Thanks for letting bygones be bygones...yes i did get epically pwned in the OT forum. not afraid to admit that. But thanks for the welcome!

Wait until you start modding it. Headers, tune, pulley and heat exchanger and she turns from demonic, to Satan himself. 
Those first few weeks with the 55 are magical. Enjoy!
