my new E55 arrives this weekend!

Been wanting to own one of these for a while. Can't wait to have it delivered!

I have some 19" Euro 63 wheels on it now but will probably change them out once I have to replace the tires. Anyone interested in buying these? They retail for about $300 each.

I was thinking of going with some gunmetal 5-star wheels but then I saw a member who had some silver mesh wheels that looked sweet. I sent him a message to find out what kind they were... we'll see.

Were you in the market? What were you're thoughts on that one and why didn't you get it?

Looks like a pimple about to burst out of the grill. Get a stock grill and paint it black.

Good luck with the new ride, and you should consider clear side marker lights also.

White with Pano is the best! But hey I'm biased!

The main reason was that it did not have "keyless go", other then that the car was solid.
