Welcome!

A 30K mile car is a nice find!
Did you get a warranty?

I hope that you enjoy the car. They are fun to drive.... take my advice, get a warranty. It will pay for itself.

Welcome to the club and I too covet the GL550. They're EVERYWHERE here in Scottsdale but my god do they look bad a$$.

But for that money I could get a 2006 S65 so I'm torn.

That is a tough choice, those S65's are beast!! We love the GL, its white with 21" inch AMG rims, on a tan and black interior. Its a tank!

Just got a GL550 for my wife and love it too! Stock is 382HP! Took it to the beach last weekend and I can tell you the 4Matic works very well even in soft sand!

That is not a good start. New owner, car in the shop before you could even get pictures.

hey guys, finally got the car back today, had the keyless go door buttons replaced, then did the pump for the dynamic seating, and had the wing put on! im glad to have it back, I absolutely LOVE the car

Also, stupid question, how do i get it so that the full picture shows up in my post rather than these small photos that you have to click on to enlarge? thanks guys!

Where are you hosting your pics?

Mine are on Photobucket, and I get the option to link to either a thumbnail or a full-size image depending on which IMG link I select... Might be something that simple.

Congrats on the car! I just picked up a 2006 E55 also (just got it thurs night).... I'm curious to see what mods you've got planned. Good news is that we're both reasonably close to TTM headquarters (Long Island, NY), so getting dialed-in should be pretty easy.
