Just wondering what some of you had before te E55. I'm looking at selling my AWD Trailblazer SS to get into the E55.

W211 E55, 911 turbo, 911sc, RX330
I had a CLK500 for my comfy night out car. It as great with a quiet, comfortable ride and nice power. The E55 is a bumpier ride with a sweet exhaust growl and gobs of power! It complements my 911 turbo nicely.

'06 E55
I'm transitioning from this to an '06 E55 that I just bought today. I am currently living in Japan and I am moving to the US soon (San Diego, to be specific). Looking forward to making the SoCal connections. Anyhow, this is my '97 Toyota Chaser Tourer V with a 1JZ-GTE. Best $3,000 ever spent. The little white van is also mine. 660cc's of turbocharged fury:

03 E500. Bought the wife the CLS 550 for her birthday. She gave it back to me and took the E500 for a couple of months. Then I bought the E55 and gave the CLS back to her. we still have the E500.

I'd like to bring it back with me, but it would be a huge headache and I couldn't register it.

Porsche 911
I was daily driving my '95 Porsche Carrera. I really miss this car with it's amazing handling and sound! It went to the previous owner and we have a deal that I get first crack when he's done with it! 
I have to say that the E55 is a far superior daily driver though and I love it! Plus, the Porsche covered the purchase price, tax, and travel expense to get the E55!
