Got a new toy
2003 C32 AMG (Supercharged V6). Wasn't looking at all but it caught my eye - I didn't need it but I sure wanted it after the test drive. No paintwork, clean carfax report, not one door ding, not even any wear on the big AMG seat bolsters. Factory staggered tires (matching Potenzas). And oh sh|t is it quick. Stupid quick. Back in the day some were able to get 0-60 in 4.6 sec. The color is "Orion Blue", supposedly special order on this car, and it's what first attracted me to it there on the front row of the local BMW dealership (traded in on an M4). I love the size - it's just perfect. Storms the twisties around my house with gusto, knowing exactly what gear is called for (5-spd auto). Power builds and builds and you just end up letting off before you get into serious trouble. It's one of those cars that just makes you wanna go drive it.

Yeah I really want a CL55 but that air suspension keeps me away. I did drive a friend's for a day last year and MAN what a machine.

Carfax shows all service at Mercedes dealers, recent new radiator, new brakes (cross-drilled), etc. so I feel pretty good about the upkeep so far.
I don't think engine size determines if it has air suspension - I think it's just all the larger AMG models do.

Very nice, before i got my GS300, one of these, as well as an older E55 were on my list, but for a daily driver I was worried about upkeep and rust as this age of mercedes, across the line from the c to the s, had problems with rust. That being said yours looks great, that color is really sharp.
