I was driving early this morning and a model X came up and driving in front by my side. This thing has two super bright round red lights in the tail lights between the red lights that was so freaking annoying to the eyes. I had to speed up to pass it and was glad he didn’t chase to pass me. I looked at some model X later and don’t see anything at those locations. Are these some kind of tail fog lights?

Oh man, you bring back some memories.
Mine was a Black on Black CL500 and this looks like a CL550 so not sure the difference and mine had some crazy MB rims- so make spokes and a mother to clean but they were the best looking rims I ever had on a car.
Sold it over a decade ago but wish I never sold it and wife still talks about the car and remembers it well when we were dating.
Totally baller and actually my friends named my car a name that is not appropriate for CL. haha
But I can tell you this, those seats are all usable and will seat 5 girls in the back no problem if they squeeze in tight and sit on each other's laps, oh yeah. lol
Yes sir, you said it!

Anyone can make a Mercedes go 300k miles if they have deep enough pockets and want to get it to that mileage. Might need extensive engine work among a ton of other problems but who's counting. Lol

A Lexus or a Toyota will need a significant amount of money to go 500,000km as well. It would good to know what the service records of this Mercedes look like.
