very nice, definitely need a drop but i would still take this one any day the wheels aren't the best for the car though i think

and man, 36 miles and he's already pushing the car? i thought there is break in period for these cars

BEAUTIFUL car... NEEDS a drop, and is it me or do those rims look to small

D2-AUTOSPORT

yeah but I think its few factors playing into that. The lips on these wheels are that big (3" or less out back), so that cuts down on the perceived size. its sitting up really high, and its a big car! When he pulled up to me that first day, he had already ordered his wheels, just MHO, lips that small on a car that big is not exactly beneficial.

yeah man, it was sunset, so the sun was actually beside me rather than behind, which gave the pics too much "brightness". I will get better pics after the drop.

Thats the point i was trying to make!!!! I could not get near him and he was not even giving it half throttle!!! The power of these motors are just plain insane. During my test-ride, we were merging on the highway at part throttle (no kickdown), and the sheer torque of the motor could be felt as the accelerated to 100mph +. And this was leisurely acceleration!!

Does ANYONE want to buy me one of these??? I promise, I will turn it into something EVEN MORE special (with AT LEAST a 3.5" rear lip )

Dont they have an air susp.? Some dealers will fool around w/ the electronics to actually lower the car more than the factory setting. Pretty easy to do but not cheap.

I'de like a 04 CL 55 w/ 8 series HRE's. Or mabye the wald forged series.

AIrmatic vs ABC

out of all the W220's only s55 and s6+ have abc standard
abc rocks

ABC is the one that has steel springs and air adjustment for the shocks correct? The lowering modules are very pricey! Brabus unit is about 1800 or so!

2-3 years they can be picked up for round 65-70k..maybe even less w/ higher miles...if they still run w/ higher miles

Dont like the rims at all... My neighbor has a S55 in black and his car looks SOOOOOO much better with the stock rims. Some nice chrome rims would really do the car justice!! Oh and yea.. its a BEAST.
