    Re: E 55 AMG Station Wagon (Estate) Pictures

    The wheels are different from the E55 Sedan -they look like the CL's previous thin spoke Styling III AMGs in 18 or 19 " . Are they a German market factory option ?
    I'm very dissapointed I can't get the E55 Wagon here in the US to replace our E wagon . I hope BMW brings the rumored M5 SMG Wagon to the US to prove that a fast multipurpose family hauler in our market need not be SUV height .

    You can actually get those wheels through the MB accesories catalog here in the U.S. They are $2,800.00 for the standard version, and $3,020.00 for the staggerd version. Which I think are the ones pictured above?

    In Germany these 18'' AMG wheels are optional at no cost.
    I still like the "original" E55 (W211) wheels much more.
    19'' Style IV multi-piece wheels are now available too but only for speed limited E55 (no tire clearance for 300 kph yet).

    The M5 Estate/SW isn't cleared for production yet as far as I know. So maybe it comes, maybe not...
    If demand for the M5 and M6 will be high, I don't think we'll see a M5 SW.

    Well, I'd love to get some of the cars available in the US (Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Escalade, etc.) and I can't over here in Germany, at least not from an official Ford/GM dealer.

    I don't want to offend anyone here. In my opion(I can't believe I am going to explain myself, why should I have to?). You will never be able to compare an American car to a German car, German cars are far superior in ever single aspect that exsist in terms of overall package. Germans are oceans and mountains, maybe even universes above Americans when it comes to performance, build quality, refinement, why should I even say more!!!...............
