I had missed my E55 since I sold it and told myself I would get an AMG again when I had somewhere to put a car. Bought a house last summer in Hamburg so I decided it was time to put something in the garage. Found this guy outside of Atlanta and had it shipped up.

I’ve got a couple things in mind for it. Plan on bringing this to Cars & Coffee on Sunday, the old man is going to have the SL500 with him as well. ---

This is so much cooler than the new NYSpeed Civic, aka 911. But I’m fully aware I’m old. ---

Sweet man :tup: I have to say I love these cars for the reason that they don’t look like crap with the top up, probably the best folding hard top made on any car. Man I had to go look up the specs on these again, over 700tq stock is awesome :tup: and a base price in 2005 of $186,000 is insane. ---

Congratulations. I have some pretty strong tunes for these. Upgrade the intercooler pump first though, even on a bone stock car the stock intercooler pump should be swapped. You are going to love this thing. ---

Maybe sort of off topic but WTF is with the Z8? Up to $300,000?!? Drop the crack pipe folks. It may have been fast in 2001 but… Aren’t there mini vans with almost 375hp now? ---
