------ MY Fist Car... EVER------- | First Official Photoshoot

Are you guys ready?

Ok...

Here's my CLS55, 2006 (only year it was available) in Granite Grey, only 2500 CLS55's were ever made, 1/2 of them were fully loaded, and half of those were black, and only about 20 of those were Granite Grey. The color isn't really Grey, it's a mix of Grey, Silver and Blue, under certain light it turns a little Aqua, it's absolutely sick and I'm in love with it.

I was going to post pictures sooner but I wanted to remove the old ****ty tint that was on it first.

Been driving it since Saturday and it's a dream. The power... the sound... the luxury, and the looks... it breaks necks like it breaks tires.

This is my first... car... ever, I never drove a 55, but did drive several 63's. After driving my friends CLS63 over a weekend, I fell in love with it. I decided to go with the 55 appose to the 63 because there's a bigger aftermarket support on the 55 models, they have tons of tunes, pulleys, cooling, headers, and other parts for this car that the 63's don't have yet.

Bought this car without getting any inspection, without seeing it in person, straight up used Buy It Now on eBay. The car is in 8/10 condition, by the time I'm done with it it'll be 10/10. Needs minor things done that should have been done by the previous owner (replace intercooler pump, belts, rotors/pads), the IC pumps go on these cars just as much as 05/06 G's on stick burn oil, it's a fix/easy repair though.

Car is out of warranty but purchasing extended 48K mile warranty from MB this Saturday and going in for a tuneup on Monday.

This thing is loaded out of the *** with every feature I could possibly want.

Why I chose a CLS...

I love coupes, and I love sedans, but I can't justify only having 2 doors, this car is a mix of a coupe and sedan, and the insurance papers say it's a 4DR Coupe so TECHNICALLY... I have a coupe. lol I love how the windows are frameless, the roof line is low and sleek and the bodylines are sharp as hell.

Brakes... out of control, I can go from 100 to 60 with a tap of my foot.

Alcanatara suede on the headliner and seats, in perfect condition. Car has dynamic seats, so when you turn or switch lanes, it hugs the **** out of you. It also has a back massager, heated and cooled seats, with everything on the only thing you're missing is a blow job.

Anyway, I could talk about this car FOREVER, so if you guys have any questions... feel free to ask.

I won't be doing any mods till the car is running 100% and every little thing is fixed.

Here you go.










And my companion



Here's what the car looked like prior to the tint removal.

Beautiful Fist car. Interesting color too. I've never seen that color before.

BTW to answer NightM4re's question, a lot of people of New York do not own cars or prefer not to have one. Most don't even have a drivers licenses, so maybe he just saved up for what he really wanted.
