W221 S-Class Official Picture Thread - Page 4

When I have spent a little more time with the S Class I hope to be able to contribute relevant input to the thread discussing the merits of the Flying Spur compared to the S65 (I've owned the Continental GT since November 2004).

VERY nice collection there, hcwong.

the design of your house/condominium (can't tell) is extremely tasteful as well.

that van in the first picture of your last post won't happen to be your daily driver, would it?

My S550 AMG in Alabaster White with Sahara Beige interior. Delivery was on April 5 in Denver, CO. Additional images are on the sites in my signature.

Beautiful pictures! I bet in that Nevada weather, the Alabaster White is paying off nicely.

I was in Boulder City this morning so I drove over to the Hoover Dam and shot a few...so many tourist I could not find a place to park on the Arizona side. But these will do.

Nice place for a Kodak monent, huh? The lake looks low. I suppose Los Angeles will need a new water source in a hundred or so years.

Yes, the lake has been down for a couple of years. Almost reached a record low last year. However, it is higher now and with this winters runoff, by fall it should be up higher. We have water restrictions on lawns and such.

I had not been to the dam in sometime and they have really made progress on the new bridge access roads and approaches. Should be done in 2008. That 2 lane route over the dam has outlived it usefullness.

This is an unusual wheel option for those who may prefer a more elegant look to go with mixed size 19" tyres. These are original MB wheels, they can be seen in the Mercedes German website and if anyone is interested, the MB product code to order them is R47.

I took these picture at the final DTM race of the 2005 season, at Hockenheim. A Mercedes CLK driven by Garry Paffert won a very exciting race!

These are called Multispoke and are available as an option in the US for $1200.

That price is a steal! I you refer to the Mercedes Benz website you will discover that they are a Eur2,100 option, whereas US$1,200 is only Eur990!

I believe it's only for the US market that it's an S550. In other countries it is still called the S500.

Hello CLSAMG

Is your father-in-law's car a short wheel base model?

If yes, how much more rear leg room is there, compared

to your CLS (I drove a CLS here in the US but it is a little

small for my size)

Thank you

Jim

Two beautiful machines...!

There is nothing wrong with "stock" on these two cars...drive them in good health.

W221 rear door stretch, spotted in Moscow.

Most likely done by ArmorTech, they do a lot of rear door stretches of the W220, W221, E65, etc, in virtually any length specification, in addition to armoring the vehicle. Other suspects include Carat Duchatelet, Trasco, Cloer, and Asbeck.

(And no, Brabus wheels dont mean anything, Brabus very rarely stretches rear doors in any way)

Looks like an older 740IL BMW with a body kit and fender flares in those pix...
