I had a new CL55 when they first came out. Huge disappointment, regardless of 493hp.

Wow! I am surprised to hear all the ******* on the 55's. Both my CL55 & SL55 are great with no problems. My SL has the boost kit as well and NO problems. I LOVE my CL55 and all the power it has, but I am going to get rid of it due to the redesign for 2006. I was also looking at a Vanquish, but will probably get a 575M or 360CS.

If you're that dead set on getting rid of the turbo, my vote goes towards the Gallardo. Great looking and driving car!

the m5 is a big improvement over the regular 5er, and even with its very pure racing engine, i can still see why some don't like it.

i say, if you want an SUV...get a Range Rover and keep the Turbo, or get an FX35 and keep the Turbo. basically, keep your Turbo!

I like my E55 but it is just a real nice a street car. The turbo is much more, especically when tuned. But you know this already!

No kidding, even if I won one in a raffle, I would immediately put that eyesore up for sale at below dealer cost, just to get it off my property! It's alright to like it, esp if you already have one, but conversely, it's alright for me to hate that "thing" too, isn't it? (Actually, the VW "Thing" is better looking, imo.

Orli, you must accept this omen. The TT cannot be denied! Bow to the TT! Bow!!! Muhahahahahahha!

Seriously, that sucks and I feel very bad for you. Better luck next time.

And I agree, stay away from the new M5. Car is disgusting. Fat pig with styling that deserves a nice flat black color to hide those hideous lines.
