One of the prettiest sedans ever created.. can’t wait to get my hands on one.. they come from the factory a monster so I can only imagine how it’ll be with some extensive work done to it 😈
Coupe. Not sedan.
@@dual7779 it’s a fastback sedan
It’s a coupe body line. Sedan have a sedan body line which is not this car.
Class, elegance & preformance
For some reason here in Germany there are more forgotten than anywhere else. It's crazy how many newer amgs you see driving around, compared to the let's say 2006-2013 era aswell. It lost it's speciality somehow.
I mean I see it's cheaper to drive turbos and 1 or 2 liter less engine......
But when you see how cheap you can get really good older models.
Damn I take an old cls, cl or s class of the last generation over everything from today every day.
Each had their own identity, today they all look the same.
Show me any mercedes of today that has the insane lines of the old cls. Good luck with that.
Also made a lot less.
@@affiliatedamg You are really lucky to see some here. 500 models, there are some. But you can even say there are more amgs of 2005 and before than some of the 6.2l era........
@@affiliatedamghi many kind of model are. old c and e models not durable maybe only olds. production date matters, and engine size in few countries year tax cheaper. in few place cls55 and 63 almost same money.
I was going to look at one tomorrow. 600+ hp with the pulley and intercooler mods. Clean title, only 68k miles for $18,000. A little pricey but such low miles.
Never forgotten.. a proper classic. I've got mine parked up in my Garage
The best design Mercedes ever made hands down
Really nice video man and that's a beautiful piece of German engineering you have got on your hands.
dude, love the video. my dream car. thanks for presenting this beauty !
Got mine about 1.5 years ago unmolested with 88K. I love this thing. Put it in Dyno Mode and lay 11's anywhere you want for as long as you want. VRP cooling upgrade and now will come the pulley/tune! It's hard not to drive this thing like a total dick.
I used to own a cls500 my first Benz and it was great. Rock solid engine.
My dad owned the original E55, the facelift version, and he also had a very rare CLS500 with a V8. And now I have a C63.
The CLS55 is neither 'forgotten' or 'unappreciated' by people who have driven AMG's. Its styling has 'aged' beautifully even for 2022. A truly stunning design. The issue is that like the S class, it kinda just feels a waste to have an AMG engine inside. With an AMG, you want a lighter and more nibble model that you can enjoy on a track etc. The CLS55 was nearly 5 meters long and it also weighed nearly 2 tonnes. It is a beautiful cruiser and wonderful on long drives. I try and have a bit of fun with the car 2-3 times a year when taking it on a track. I couldn't possibly turn up with a CLS55 - would just look silly. But as a daily driver and for the motorway, it is a fantastic car. Realistically, it is a car made for German motorway. The very few places where you can reach desirable speeds, but won't be hit with a ticket.
Ps. Those alloys are horrendous. Sorry.
In Germany this car is rarely seen anywhere if not at all anymore, it ceases to exist as well as in the US. I’ve personally only seen one other cls55 in the US in person and it was last week at a car event in Ten. The wheels are all black now but seemed everyone loved them over three years. I assure you the speeds it can reach have been met with no issues.
@@affiliatedamg it is a car that's nearly twenty years old so in more 'richer' countries it is bound to be rare! But I do still see cls63's from that generation in London from time to time!
I'm just more of a traditionalist! Too much of a contrast but of course we all have different tastes! Shame about the idiot drilling the dash 😩
@@recruitmentch there’s a lot going on with this car right now, that includes wrapping the dash black like one of the options that was presented by factory, and fixing the hole.
Lol I feel you, I feel cls look best with 20 inch wheels and straight spokes.
I respect purists.
@@affiliatedamg sounds like it should look great! I've wanted to wrap my car in another colour but always put off by how long it takes the garages to do it! 20 inches should look awesome!
@@recruitmentch same wheels just black now.
Cool car man. Keep it! Love it!)❤️
Got one in the garage put up for the winter....she a beast.
That engine!!! 🤌🏾bro this is my dream car Soon I will own one 🥲. Love the mods and congratulations on owning a rare beauty
Hope you get great luck bro. It’s my dream car too
I have one it just doesn’t run yet
Miss my cls55 but i'm am liking the biturbo w218 . You're car is clean nice set up
The visual modifications are tasteful.
Just ordered me one of these, to be enjoyed as of next week..... love them.... Nice example bro.
Here to support 💯💯
I copped a 2008 CLS63 3 weeks back, stock to the bones besides the inclusion of an integrated radar
Dope video bro, next video should be your throwing it in a Dyno 💪
here for it!
Finally another Cls content creator . I’m here for it . I would like to collaborate on a video one day . Keep the content coming 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Where are you from buddy??
@@affiliatedamg maryland bro
Hey I have a cls to fellas... hey affiliate could walk me through your mods
Such a great car!
Perfect!
Cls 55 Amg super🔥🔥🔥🔥
You got an absolute steal on this car & the engine carbon fiber stuff. Very nice ride
Eyy great walk around, thanks m8.
new amg lover here. CLS THO
was never into mercedes but there seems to be so many good old gems between 2000-2010! that look great and keep up with newer cars like e55 vs scats lmao
UI love CLS 55, I had CLS 55AMG Renntech for like 7 years put to 220k miles, was taking off traffic lights every day without failures like in BMWs. Transmission is very strong. Hey throw those carpets away, really make interior look cheap.
The E55 gets the most love because it is the lightest AMG you can get with the M113K in the states.
Plottin on this whip😍😍😍 Im chillin w the 09 c300 sport till then
Nice, love the CLS55.
My man ! I’ve watched your vids!
Quick question bro what’s the specs on the tire? Is it 305/25/20 in the rear?? And what’s the staggering on the wheels ? 20x9 in front and 20x10.5 or 11 in the rear?
Amg gang😈
SUPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i just got the cls 500 thats all i could get but i love it
Yes sir !!!!!! I got the same one , I definitely subbed !!!!!
Check my channel out if you’d like to see mine
I’ll preference this by saying I’m looking to buy a 2010 cls 63 AMG. But wow … this 09 looks and is amazing. Definitely helping me stay focused on getting a 2010. Dope car!
Its an 06.. Thats the only year they came in 55. It was 63 from then on.
@@TheAceTroubleshooter ah okay yah that things nasty!
Greetings from Australia could you please give the all the stats re the ferrada fr4 wheels i got the size, width and colour ok but the other numbers confuse me. I'll go for 19" diameter and 8.5" width. thanks for a great vid. mine is dead stock i'm deleting the secondary cats just to get more sound. the VRP kits look good. do you recommend a dyno tune after getting the vrp bigger heat exchanger and the 010 Bosch pump upgrades, these are the only mods I'm considering for the foreseeable future
🔥🔥🔥🤟🏽
beautiful car
Like the Hamilton cap
Just picked one up Sunday same price as you same black on black so far love the car. Cant wait to do the similar mods I have the same wheels too lol #CLS55AMGGANG
I’ve been thinking about getting a 2006 E55, 2006 CLS55, 2004 SL55 amg. Or a M5 E60 with the beautiful V10
What bilstein coilovers do you have? I just converted to bc and I definitely enjoy the peace of mind but would definitely be interested in the higher quality ride. I had bilstein struts on my Lexus gs400 before and loved them.
Best car ever made............................ Still got my original one owner
I love you man
Ohh yeah and nice mods I got a cls 350 2005
Hey bro whats the suspension set up??? U said some about bilstein?? I am wonder if is chance to change original ones into staff like b8/b12??? 🤙😎
I love my 55
i have the same car one of the best car absolutly no problems just oil change and break pads
yo this is just sick. I'd love to know what you do to earn this lifestyle? Wanna get there too someday !
How did you bypass the air suspension code?
Also what are the offset and wheel size?
Nice wheels, what's the offset. Keep up the content 🔥
Makes me miss my 06 cls 55 amg but rwd sucked in the winter 😢 getting a awd 2012 cls 550 soon not a amg but with stage 2 mods it should be a runner .
Winter beater life, always store the AMGs
Good channel we need more videos
What would you enjoy seeing?
@@affiliatedamg burnouts, drag races, donuts stuff like that
nice build ! 🔥 I think Imma buy one this week for a fun ride 😈 it’s $11.8k with 160k miles 👀 I might talk the dealer down to 10k hopefully 😂🙏🏽
yo did u buy it? i’m bouta pick one up for 11k only 110k miles
I just got one with 160 for $7000 was supposed to be 6 but I wasn’t gonna turn down the car since it was off a trade I know I can’t come along one everyday and book went up the first day of owning it
@@joshuabishop2310 damn that’s a steal forsure i got mine for 11k and it books for 14,500$
@@wet_e92 my bad for the late reply but yes I ended up getting it , if you did buy it I suggest getting rid of the airmatic suspension asap or at least that’s what I did. Definitely fun & reliable car for the time I had it ! If you’re looking to upgrade on performance I suggest getting a tune by ProjectA!
@@alerodrigvez4956 nice, the air suspension on mine was actually just replaced and i’ve started looking at tune i think i’m gunna go with the vrp tune since they got the sale rn
Bro we need more videos 💯
I have some more coming, I’m just busy with school and my computer keeps crashing from editing.
Hi what front grille are those looks sick
I have the W215 chassis CL55 Coupe. These cars are stupid nice and almost no one even knows what they are.
Just wondering only 530bhp from all the modifications you’ve done to it??
It should have at least 580/600bhp am i wrong?
I have mine still 90k miles
what size of wheels are you running
Gdzie kupiłeś takie wypełnienie halogenów? Jakiś link??
What are the specs of thee wheels? Looks very good
Hello
Where did you buy the front lip?
I would like to purchase the same product
Where can I buy it ?
I love the e55 & cls 55 because they're more reliable than the 63amg's
and faster 😅
@@recklesshoongarage566 Not true. Not faster at all and both are just as reliable. Both came with a factory defect that may or may not happen.
Where did you get your front lip 🤩
got the 06 myself !!! Only got 69k on her!!
Just a heads up if u still don’t know the aux cord goes out from the top of the glove box u can close the glove box and the aux cord would still be great
What do you mean? Dm on insta. W219merc
u still got this car brah
Yea lol
This has to be the luckiest dude on the planet lol
What kind of floor mats are those? They look nice!
they are from china, not sure the brand.
Does it have airmatic suspension?
This car was in 50 Cent ft Tony Yayo “So Seductive” (Music Video) fun fact: I have a song with Tony Yayo!
The cl55 is the real forgotten amg
And we say bye bye? Did that come out of exhaust?
What about CLS 63 for comparison.
Дизайн опережающий время!
What about your tyres size?
Check BlitZ one black CLS man
How the 55 AMG is running so far? Thinking of buying one!!!!
No engine problems. My sbc pump just failed but they are replacing for free. Other then that w the low miles I have I haven’t had to rebuild anything. I recommend a m113k now because one day you will have trouble finding one.
@@affiliatedamg any social media to contact you or email?
@@edgardoarroyo7418 IG: coltonshail
The CLS55 was NOT only Produced in 2006! What you mean to say is that it was only sold in the US in 2006
Tell me the other years the cls55 was made then. There are no 05 or 07 cls55. Lol.
@@affiliatedamg educate yourself. I have a 2005 CLS55. Just because the US didn't get it until 2006 doesn't mean they didnt exist else where before then.
great car! What a pitty that the previous owner did not have any feel for beauty. What kind of person would consider drilling a hole in the dash through that wonderful wood???? Barbaric!!
its not actual wood
@@AGLIBABY well.. it is a sandwich combination of a thin layer of the actual wood you do see and a few layers of aluminum and simple wood... in my opinion it is barbaric anyway to drill a hole in it..
@egi75 I agree with you man. Especially on an AMG, pretty sad
*Hey what are your full wheel specs?* *I see they are 20 inch but I don't see the widths and offsets listed*
20 inch 10 wide on back 305 tire. 9 in front 275. 35et.
What high performance CLS is the most reliable? Would it be the naturally aspirated CLS63 even though it has more power?
The older 63 needs heads done at 100k. I wouldn’t recommend buying one without that done. Newer ones I definitely recommend. The 55 overall maintenance I feel is better than the same w219 63.
@@affiliatedamg Thanks!
The power train of the CLS55 is the most reliable
What’s the brand of the carbon fiber intake system? I see renntech has something similar but $$$$$$$$
Carbonio, was early 2000s released for over $2k. Got it from a buddy totaled cls55 for $300.
@@affiliatedamg I’ve looked everywhere for a set
@@RichardVigilJR impossible to find.
I've always wanted one, but too worried about the age to condition.
Get one well maintained and low miles and you’ll be alright.
I got my 2006 in Sept. She had 148000 km on it and had a rough life before I got her. (Not close to as clean as AffiliatedAMGs) Put over 8,000 klm on her before putting her away for the winter. She had needed nothing. Will need new rear tires though....:)
What kinde of wheels are the one on the car ?
Ferrada fr4 copper two tone w black
@@affiliatedamg fantastic car beautifully done! Love the wheels. What size are they? Look bigger than 18s.
@@shamtheunstoppable 20

There’s one of these for sale in my area! It’s 17k with 90k miles. I want it bad. Should I scoop it?
Yes
@@affiliatedamg hell yeah. Imma sell my 2013 Dodge Challenger then pick it up.
@@stephonn7822 Fuck yeah get rid of that challenger lmao, did u end up buying the CLS?
Made from 04-06
Rims name?
Dude drilled a hole..lol
Is that the US seating position bro?
No wym they move all the time from me and my friends.
When your car was stock did you race any scat pack ?
Na Lmao why? This car is from chicago. Last owner raced hellcats. 392s aren’t worth the gas lol
@@affiliatedamg I wanted to know what it can keep up with, might be my next built
@@yokev_5611 if a 392 is your next build you might be able to keep up with a stock 5.0 with some mods
@@yokev_5611 cls you can make hella power, this year you can weistec it, pulley mods, etc. the years after in the 63 you can get bigger turbos
@@yokev_5611 yes,stock it will beat a scat pack and srt8. I a had to drag one yesterday in my s55
It states "trans swap" so what type of trans swap?
Just a fresh cls55 trans
In my country they cost like 10k
Very bro
Just purchased one yesterday did a partial trade with an ml350 my total is $7000 for the AMG
I need a ml350 to tow this broken thing!!!
@@affiliatedamg lol those things suck!
Louder for the people in the front
