Ohh How i miss my E55 :(

Getting the Itch to Pick up another E55 since the prices are dropping like crazy but might have to wait till next summer. A forum memeber picked up my old E but here are a few pics i don't belive i posted before. This was one of the worst ideas to sell this car. It honestly has it all comfort,performance,style,sex appeal just the over all package that i could not find in any other car ive looked at. Hopefully in the near future i can purchase another E55 or E63 W211 and be able to be more active on the forums as i come and browse the site every so often. This site has been and is a great resource for anyone with mercedes needs. Thank You all for the great ideas,advice and helpful info and tips to keep these cars running in top shape. Hope to use the great knowledge on this sight very soon

Yeah i don't know if the new owner changed it or not but the grill i had color matched with the car and left the fins black. But i to love the Tecticte Gray and flint Gray color on that car i really wanted a white one but i definitly would get another gray or silver if i find a clean silver one in good shape those for sure are my two choices.

Turnout was ok for Benzes only 5 of us showed up so 5 benzes all together. We cruised from Streets to Hooters at O'Hare where there was a car show and from there we all split after getting food. I love the way that grille is now on the gray one, he did not change it. I would not settle for silver some cars look good in silver some look ok. I think the E looks best in Gray or White IMO. Of course nothing against silver since I drive a silver Benzo. If I was buying an E at this time I would get either the Gray or White, the dark blue is not bad either but they are extremely hard to find.

Saying this joking but still it must have hurt.

That's like saying "Was hanging with the guy who is now banging your wife. She looks amazing man. Well cared for."

I got that pit in my stomach reading that line.

Gonna be so hard to see my baby go away someday. These twin turbs better kick A!!! So far....THEY DO!!!

Funny, I was missing the 55 motor in general. The CLS was nice but like benzuovr said, the E is such a cool body style. I bought a 2005 Obsidian Black E55 today from the original owner with 29800 miles. Completely stock down to the SportContact tires. It should be here Thursday. Cant wait.
