CLS is incredible. The only thing I could see replacing it with is the 2008 V10 Panamera. can't wait for mine to arrive

Here is my CLS55, wheels by Peter Lee @ Wheel Experts.

I have been dying! Had to update my email and got locked out of the site....thanks to all for the input....I have lurked for days.... I picked up my CLS55 on Sunday and my face is killing me....It really hurts from all the darn smiling I have been doing.... I FRIGGIN love this car....thought I might have some buyers remorse...NOT.....traded the two in and loving every minute of it. I am taking it easy until I get the 1k miles on it, but MAN! there is some monster grunt under there....but being a nut, I am already researching ECU upgrades and other toys.... Thanks to all for the remarks....it really helped and now I am a happy camper. Phil Smart MBZ (AKA MBZ of Seattle) was an absolute joy to work with.....made the deal fun instead of typical car deal.

Anyone tried to use the AUX port for the MP3? The Ipod is a non starter cuz there is a $1k in labor to get it to run through the command center....

Net Net, having a great time with the car.

THANKS to ALL

Wow so perfect, RENNTech ultra lights on a crisp, black, CLS55.

The poster above who said the CLS looks dated, LMAO, what do you think doesn't look dated? The CLS looks ahead of its time to me!

how come when you turn PSM off it still kicks in. They do it to save their ***, least amount of people that die in their cars, less money they have to give away.
