the cls 550 does not come in amg but he appearance pkg that i got... the only amg model is the cls63 amg but they wanted like 130gs for the amg which i really didnt need.

the rims i got for cheap from my friend to throw on the car till i get a set of rims.. keep in mind the car is only 4 days old and has 400 miles on it... im looking into rims now just not sure on what to get..


the windshield is 20% and is not legal in ny... i got pulled over 4 times in one week. twice in one day. but i like it like that..

and i am going to enter it in car shows... wherever i go to race if theres a car show my other car will be in there ..

i will get interior pics of the car soon. gunna rain tomrorow so thursday ill have new pics of the car all clean and interior pics all clean..

thanks for the comments guys!

I like the CLS but those rims look terrible. I dunno how companies get away with selling such cheap looking rims for $$$. Get some nice silver rims IMO. Black rims on a luxury car just look strange in general to me.

im not trying to be a jerk or anything.. BUT how can i take someones advice that puts 20" Chrome GFG's on a Evo ... Chrome 20s on a evo just looks strange in general to me ... Like i said i got the wheels for a good deal.. u know like the ones you cant turn down and put them on for now until i figure out what rims i want to go with... they are better than the stock and im happy with them..
