CLS wheels? I like the look on the 211 sedan. But I think you're gonna hafta repaint the green calipers if you go to a plain old silver MB wheel...

They are very good looking wheels.

I also happen to think that one thing that particular sedan has going for it, is that it is the sexiest looking modern E class of anything since the W124 ended. (Coupes and wagons, not so much).

No doubt the blazing AMG accelleration doesn't hurt your feelings too much, -- I would LOVE to swap you my SEC for a weekend sometime, it has a 300 hp high compression 10:1 euro motor in it now that you have never tried.
