Hi! I'm not new to the forums but I am new to the E55. I'm looking forward to my days and nights with this car, it's an amazing machine. It will only let me post one file at a time (mobile device) so bare with me.

It's all about the drive! It's the only way to roll. Besides, closed container shipping is $2,200 more than to just drive it back :-/

Any Phoenix area members here? I'm looking for a recommendation for a dependable Mercedes indy shop for routine maintenance.

Thanks everyone for the greetings! Nice to see a couple member in my state, but I'm shocked that there aren't any closer to Phoenix, Scottsdale or Glendale. I saw a few on the freeway since I got here a year ago.
I took some cell pics for you guys after a good detail since taking my 2,200 mile trip!
