Smile My new CLS550 with new shoes (pics)

Just got my CLS550, white with Cashmere interior. Absolutely love the car! No issues whatsoever, and exceptional build quality. Added some dark tint, and new Auto Couture 20's with 305/25's in the back and 255's up front.

Also just ordered the RENNtech lowering module ... goes in Tuesday, along with the hardwire of my Valentine One to the car.

Here she is:

Beautiful! I'm considering buying one but I am waiting to hear feedback on using a RWD car in the snow. I live in Denver...

yep...my vacation house that I live in every day :-) Craftsman/Ski Lodge style ... popular here in the Pacific Northwest.

Abednego ... I realize this data will be near worthless, as it is not about the CLS ... but my Lexus LS430 that I traded in for this was RWD, and it drove GREAT in the snow. With all of the technology around ESP and anti slip, it is amazing how well RWD cars do in the snow. Now, if you you put aftermarket tires like me (305's) I suspect snow will be more of a problem.

I can say that it has been known to rain a bit here in Seattle :-) and the CLS is very stable ... even in HEAVY rain and standing water.

Is it the 'designo' white package? Interior looks as though it is.

Now that's a well done CLS... Nicely 'personalized' but not too bling... At least not too bling comapred to some I've seen... Got to love that dark tine against the white body ... Very nice ride...

I'm about to order a CLS500 in Australia. I loved the look of your car. Is the tinting the standard MB offering or did you have it done elsewhere.
