2003 E55 AMG
Greetings from Anchorage, AK

Hey all!
My name is James and I am happy to say I am the proud new owner of a 2003 E55 AMG This is my first Mercedes I have owned and so far and am in love. The perfect balance between luxury, performance and styling.

Unfortunately these are the only 2 pictures I have so far. I want to get more as soon as the weather clears up




Again, it's a 2003 with 71,000 miles. Engine and Performance wise, it is all stock. Next spring, I want to do Pulley, intake and tune. As far as exhaust, I am liking the E63 Mufflers with cat/res delete and cut outs so far. I think I am going to go that route.

As for my screen name, it has to do with my other car. My "toy," my bread and butter



It's a Focus ZX3 that is built and boosted. Mountune CGI Block with Cosworth head and an HKS GT3037 S Turbo. 2600 lbs (with me in it) pushing 462WHP @21 psi. I have plans for here next spring as well hehehe (up the boost, more aggressive tuning and meth injection)

I am very excited to be a part of this community, and hope to gain a vast amount of knowledge on this amazing machine! Please leave any input, suggestions, recommendations thoughts... whatever!

Thanks for taking the time to read my post and I'll see ya guys on the boards!
