Finally got an E55

Posted up some time ago that I was looking, and have been lurking and learning...

Just bought a 06 E55 in Florida.... with an extended warranty for the next 12 months, so now just waiting for it to get up here to MD... super exited.

The car already has a new sc pump, and heat exchanger, so i should be good to go for a pulley and tune.

Will post pics, when it arrives.

Shardul has been very supportive with advice even on things he doesn't sell.

That's a good look with the heat exchange exposed as it is. I would be a little concerned about damaging it though.

Any interest in trading those wheels for some stock 18" wheels? Doesn't cost anything to ask!

So went to a weekly car meet here in MD called cars and coffee.

That was a new thing for me having a car that people know about, and people want to look at... My S60R was not that kind of a interesting car apparently.

Best part walking away and come back 10 min. later and just stand behind and listening to people commenting on the car... some good and some real "smart" ones.

I did not know that a K20 engine in a civic with a 1500$ turbokit would eat my car.... I just get so much smarter every day :-)
