New E55 Owner
Hey guys,
I just picked up a 2006 E55 (Black) with about 60k miles with pretty much every option except Distronic this past Sunday in VA (I live in MD myself). I was lurking around the forums here for a bit under an old username of mine, AMG LOL, and now that I'm an AMG fan I can't be rollin around with that alias.
Here's the only pic I have for now, parked next to my SC 300.
Anywho, I had a question since purchasing my car:
1) Are all doors supposed to open without the key? The sales rep told me only the front doors operate with the Keyless Go, and I caught the fact that the driver side door wasn't operable and they docked $900 off for that. If the back doors are supposed to be functional as well, I'm going to have to make a phone call about that.

Thanks guys... looks like I need to talk with this dealership... can't believe sales people at an official Mercedes-Benz dealership could lie to you like that...

Congrats on the purchase. It never gets boring. 
All 4 doors work with Keyless Go. If the rears have failed, there is a good DIY here on how to replace them.
