The car is just stupidly fast, Really easy to be cruising along in a completely silent cockpit, look down an your doing 125mph, like I was this morning. The car pulls hard in every gear. Even at 100+ speed when you mash the throttle the torque is mind blowing. I gotta watch my *** with this car, I see blue flashing lights in my future

I love it though

I did not know a new E55 could be ordered without Xenon lights. It seems strange that these would be an option at this price-point

congrats, right now the E55 is one of the best buys in the market right now. It's a lot of car for under 70K.

we did a E55 black on black with 20" M3 black....check it out

I have more pics of this car but they aren't on this computer...email me if you want to see them and i'll send them to you tomorrow from the office.
