Hey guys just wanted to share. This guy I know in passing, picked up a 04 Triple Black Mercedes Benz S55 about 2weeks ago. I was driving home from the carwash, and he drove up next to me with it!! I pulled over and he gave a quick ride in it, what a machine!!!! The car only had 36miles on it then (why cant I have one
). Its fully loaded with Distronic Cruise, Keyless Go, Powered open/close trunk, you name it.
The thrust that this thing provides is plane old INSANE, I could not get near it, and he was not even pushing the throttle halfway down. It sounds like a cigarette boat too, such a bassy, burbly exhaust.
He called me today to let me know he got his new wheels :
20" Lowenhart LD-5 Black face, polished lip, staggered, Pirello P-Zero Nero tires
I love the look, but it needs a drop BADLY, I tell him this everytime I see him. LOL. This is my dream car (with a drop, and tint, and bigger lip action) LOL.
Am I the only one with this dream?
LOL
LOOK AT THOSE BRAKES FRONT AND REAR!!!!!!!!
:eek:2

Damn!! Black on black S55! You don't see those often
I remember the last time I saw an S55, it was in Manhattan when I was driving my cousins Explorer, crazy thing is that the guy was driving it like a taxicab, reckless as ever without a care in the world. Life must be good.

That car is just sick! But yeah, definitely needs a drop... and for some reason I don't think it's the money that's holding him back from doing it ![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Definitely take pics and post them when he drops that beauty! Love the wheels...

Nice car D.
Unfortunately, the amount of drop that thing needs makes me not to want to look at it until it is dropped thoroughly!

The black on black setup is a first I've seen on an S55; lucky that you were there to witness at the right time D
However for some reason the 5-spoke LD5 design seems to create a more open "look" in the wheel/brake area than it needs to. Then again, it could be just too much sunlight in the pics (darkness is preferably on our side LOL) ![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
I prefer the stock rims on the S600. That would look really nice all around on a black S![Cool](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/cool.gif)
