I tip my Goose Island Red Lager in my glass right now to you![:)]Finally, an MB that NEARLY equals the road presence of my W140 S-Class.[:D][:I]

That is one exotic machine. Congrats! What are the standard options with a 55 in US? More pics. inside/outside would be nice for future contenders?

Cheers.

I saw the interior of the CLS at the dealer, its nice and everything. I like the size and the looks too, but I wonder why is it different on the gas milage. I saw 22 on highway and its the same engine as the E500 for 25mpg on highway. The car is nice Im thinking of getting it.

The reason I think it is different on gas mileage is because this car is sleeker than the E500. So the air will be easier to flow over the car, causing less gas to be used.

I really like the CLS also, but one thing I don't like about the interior is the wood that they are using for it. Is there any other choice, that looks a little bit more shiny, like what they use for S-Class or E-Class?

That's what I meant why the CLS has 22mpg on highway if its sleeker and E500 has 25mpg on highwy.

There is something about the CLS that really has me amazed. I dont know, maybe its the sleekness, but as a total package, i really find this car attractive. Forget whether there is more or less room than other MBs, just looking at it from outside the car, every angle is stunning! Drive your CLS55 in good health buddy! ENJOY :) It sure is a BEAUTY
