2005 Mercedes S55


2005 Mercedes S55Designed for true performance enthusiasts, the supercharged V-8 equipped S55 AMG strikes an ideal balance between elegance and sheer driving excitement. The four-door S55 comes in one well-appointed trim level. The long list of standard features includes a DVD-based navigation system, 14-way power front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, extensive leather and wood interior trim, a high-powered CD audio system and even illuminated vanity mirrors for all four seating positions. Among the options are "active, ventilated" seats that feature built-in fans to keep one's backside cool on sultry days, Distronic cruise control that automatically maintains a preset distance from the car in front of it and Parktronic that lets you know when you're approaching a potentially damaging object in a parking lot.
