Tectite E55 in Vancouver

i seen today a Tectite E55 in Vancouver/ robson street. It was lowered, with aftermarket wheels (drove by so didn't really get to notice exactly which they were) dual fog lamps in the front, i think exhaust tips as well could be whole exhaust system but i noticed the tips, and debadged, with american plates

anyone on this forum owes it?

I've seen a few, i don't know which years tho.. prolly 03 or perhaps a few 04, mine was an early 04 oct./04 to be exact.. bought it at NorthShore MB
next time, if u see one with a plate [883***] it'd be mine, or see a all around shaved head asian, prolly me too.

E55's are becoming a daily sight now but I encounter the same ones very regularly. My father has a black 04 E55 and I occasionally get to drive it, if you see one with a plate that starts with 52* ***, a friendly wave will be welcomed!

Anyone want to make my dreams come true? All I'm asking for is a ride in an AMG monster

Another few years before I will be able to afford my own car... just started finance at BCIT

My wife's cousin and I got the first 2 E55 in vancouver in 2003. It was sweet, but as one board member say, its almost a daily occurrence now to see one. Despite that, its a great car. I saw about 1 to 2 a while back and the owner did some evil **** to their car-gangbanger's style 20" chrome wheels etc and IMHO its just fu_k upi the car. I got a CLS55 now, according to my dealer, its the first one in Vancouver. So far, I have not seen any, but I am sure it will be flooded as well by summer. Mines Obsidian black.

Another note, I see that all the 55's owner are friendly and enthusiastic on the board here, but why is it that when I see another E55 on the road in Vancouver, they all act very snotty and act as if they don't even see another fellow 55-er??

I agree that we should have a meet, informally. At least to trade info on mods and parts. My relative and I are in. That's 2 55's already

You all should definetly meet up and post pics. If I had that number of AMG vehicles around here, I would meet up for sure! So, what are you waiting for? Meet up and most some pics here. You can't take bad pics with E55's and CLS55's in them!

That sounds like an awesome idea Harris, I get my car back next week. Not an E55 but its a 2005 C55. Maybe sometime in very early June. Nice idea. Get a chance to meet other board members and see your new facility.

I wouldn't mind checking out your new shop. I feel bad that I posted on this thread because I do not drive an E55, but I have 2 AMG vehicles. Meet ?????????

Come and check it out at our Grand Opening. We are just having a "soft opening" at the moment. It sells EVERYTHING related to Mercedes and high end audio sound systems.
