Just Got My Baby

Well Gang I just took delivery tonight of my new 2005 E55. She only has 31 miles on her from the dealer to my climate controlled warehouse were she will live on those cold winter days and nights.

I am in Love,
MBH

Here's one more shot of my new baby next to my matching 2003 Silver Harley Ultra Classic 100th Ann. At least the E55 will have some company to welcome her to the USA.

Best Wishes,
MBH

I also keep my race car at my warehouse, so the new E55 can talk some German with the E30 M3 Race Car.

Best Wishes,
MBH

Time for some solid impact strips that lack that pesky orange reflector. Thats the very first mod every E55 owner should look into. Makes a big difference. Congrats!

I drive a E55T, SLK55 and 65 Mustang Conv.
Cool

Congratulations on the new addition! I'm dying to get mine and it's still almost a year away. I also think my husband is going to want to imvite himself to your warehouse. I sent him to the BMW M school on November and he sure had a ball driving around their M3 and M5's!

Congrats! I like how you at least left the V8 badging on the front-side fender.

Gang,

I just returned from driving the beast. She now has over 100miles on her. This car is just awesome!!!!

The only mods I want to do for now is remove the hood emblem and replace it with the pin. I also want the grill from the CL with the star in the middle. I may change the rims to 19's later, but I would only use factory AMG 19's. I know the are big bucks for sure.

Thanks for the all the kind well wishes. These AMG's are truly great cars.

Best Wishes,
MBH

Gang,

Thanks for all the nice comments and words. Yeh my new E55 will have a real hard time living this winter in my dream warehouse were I keep most of my cars. I will do most of the service myself and as much as possible since it helps to have once of these in the building.

Best wishes,
MBH
