My Car

I bought a 06 cls55 with orginal sticker at $105k. Its black on black and 24.5k on the clock. Picked it up for $44,500. Its my DD and I love it. I even raced my nephew in his e46m3 vert with that POS VF SC kit (he dynoed at 470 at the wheels) and I beat him everytime.

Just bought a set of iforged classics with gloss black face and polished lips. Also bought the newest rebtech elm. I will post pics in a couple of week with everything iinstalled. Im considering the carlson lip and would like to do something more aggresive with the exhaust.

Thanks. I will when I get the wheels and suspension done. I hate posting pics of stock cars.....

Also thinking of blacking out the front grill and rear lights

Thoughts?

Congrats! The AMG cars are no joke. They also make great garage companions for your 996tt. Ask me how I know...
