Did you guys notice in one of the picture, the car stands crooked. Lower on the left side compared to right ? Airmatic ? shock ? strut ?

The vin tag shows 744 original color which is the Brilliant Silver. I'm wondering how good of a paint job is this custom color. Most importantly how much does it cost?

The color is cool so it has potential, a few tweaks and it'd be solid.The bright silver headlights clash with the blacked out grill, maybe tint the exterior of the lights or do the grill in chrome.
The wheels look like crap too, theyd compliment the color if they were HREs brushed tinted finish, or chrome if the grill was chrome.

Yea I was admiring this car online the other day. Not usually into custom colors but this one looks clean and sporty! I would change the rims cause on this color brush silver concave wheels would really pop.

2004 CLK55 cab
I went and looked at this car. The rims are in poor condition and I'm wondering if they are true HRE's there is no "HRE" stamp on the face between the rivets. Cracked left tail light. Missing DVD player for rear entertainment. Paint does look good from 10 feet away, but a few chips here and there bothered me. Most importantly when I drove it; it lacked the power that I've felt when I test drove other E55's. Kind of felt like my CLK55. Like the SC wasn't engaging.
