Few shots of my newly acquired '06 E55

Just messing around with the camera after washing it. Only mods so far are some LED city lights / plate lights, & flat badge (what a difference!). Looking into black grill, but really trying to stay close to stock look.
2006 Flint Gray - Pano - 36k mi - pretty much loaded minus distronic. Slight improvement over the 2010 Malibu company car that was my previous daily driver.

I am considering that same combo myself, but I have been unable to see what color the red actually is.

Exact same car as mine except no Pano here and I have 40K miles

The Flint Gray looks so good in all light settings, it's an awesome color! Congrats!

By chance, was this the car for sale in Northern VA? That's another beauty 06 Flint.

Thanks. I love it. Can't wait to do a real photoshoot one of these days. I actually like them in virtually every color. After all, beauty is more than sheet metal deep, right? I think of what's under the hood is always the first thing I think of when I see one on the road. In the month I've owned it, I've yet to come across another E55 or E63 in my travels. The 55's seem to be becoming more rare these days, at least in my area.
I bought it from a guy on this board, from just outside DC, in Maryland. Not sure if it's the same car you're thinking of.
I've been itching to refinish the wheels or buy a set of the SL65 in titanium. I think they go well with flint grey but unfortunately I hear are very heavy?
