O/T E55 Options
My name finally came up for an 2004 MB E55 AMG at Motorwerks of Barrington (Porsche and MB dealer). I wonder if my recent order for the '04tt moved me up in line? Hmmm.
Anyway, here are the options I am looking at. Any suggestions appreciated. I'm getting the car at list price, I don't think I can do any better.
brilliant silver/charcoal
Nav
CD changer
Panorama sunroof
Parktronic (for wife)
Solar panel cooling
Comfort package (ventilated seats, active seats)
Lighting package
about $87k

Is the keyless go really usefull? The car mostly sits in the garage and I normally don't let the car warm up for a long time, I just keep revs down till the engine warms up.
I'm looking hard at the MB lighted sills. I can't decide if it is really cool or ricey.

Yeah, I saw the lighted sills on an SL500, and they looked nice. Keyless go is not only usefull, but it is very cool. A push button start on the gearshift... I would have it no other way.

The integrated phone is nice--overpriced, but it is a Mercedes. Voice command is also nice.
Electronic trunk closer is great--open and close the trunk from inside the car, and push a button inside the trunk (when your hands are full with packages) and it closes itself.
I thought about the lighted AMG door sills, but it's quite expensive to have them installed afterward.

03 C4s, you are right, but as Poursha stated, you can not turn the car on without you touching the engine on button on the gearshift. Keyless go will not allow you to remotely start your car.
The rear sunshade is a nice option.

Evan, you should go all out and get a CL55 AMG, or an S55 AMG, thoes cars are available. Check Fletcher Jones (in california) for an E55 if you want one (they are the largest MB dealer in the world).

Were they 2003 cars? Yeah, the E55 will depreciate much less than those cars, the residual is very high too on an E55.

Not sure what's the hoopla with Keyless Go...I have it on my SL and I don't really care for it. It was cool the first week, but after that, I just went back to the regular key. The card key is kinda thick and doesn't really fit in my wallet. Maybe keeping in my pants pocket, but even then...Maybe i'm old fashion

I can't imagine how an E55 will be sooooo much better than a CL55 or S55. Yes it is a little more nimble but will probably still have the same overall feel as the others. Has your dad driven the E55, to know it isn't another mistake?
