👍

Thanks!

Thanks! The RSC2 is a sweet little gimbal, and I've seen some people get some crazy shots with smartphones. Get after it!

@@throttleresponsemedia Yeah, I agree. DJI makes great products. First I just need to get a new mirrorless camera for videos with 4k@60p. Hopefully I'll get one this year. There will be CP+ show next week.

Thanks man!

It's a great car

@@throttleresponsemedia I've definitely found a new way to look at it.

I bet that is fun to drive! I love the 550

I thought pushrods sounded off sohc since the 90s that's why they don't blow , don't have rods to throw

24 valves, 3 valves per cylinder.

@@BlagoP yes that would be too many lol 😆

I honestly was surprised at what this car had for the year. Lol I'm not too knowledgeable about Mercedes, I mostly stay in the JDM space. So it was pretty interesting to see a well built C class from 06 with much more to offer than say... an LS 430.

@@throttleresponsemedia It's cool, you're learning. I have lots to learn too. A C class is the small economy Benz, like a 3 series, but usually a little cheaper. Like, about 50% of e90s have leather, where about 90% of c classes of that time have pleather. A CLS is mid level Benz, literally a prettier E class. The big boys of the period build quality wise were the S class and the CL. With the S class coming in a distant 2nd. Coolest feature the CL and S class have of that period are power rearview mirrors. They don't have a switch, but have a motor and change position themselves with different memory settings being used. The coolest feature that CLS55 has are dynamic seats. The seats will inflate or deflate bolsters during cornering for support.

Besides the heated and cooled massaging seats, you could also choose the adaptive cruise control for a CLS, in 2005. Most likely not available for the C-class. :) The CLS is basically an E-class, with the amount of leather in the interior of an S-Class, and the passenger/cargo capacity of an A-class. ;-)

@@phurniz The trunk space is a moot point others say. A w211 trunk capacity is 15.8 ft. A c219 trunk capacity is 15.7 ft. A new A class is 8.7 ft.

@@randkamza1206 The trunk space line was kind of a joke, but there's some truth to this: While the trunk is quite spacious and deep, it's pretty darn low. The w219 can only fit one tyre in its trunk. You can't fit two. Not even "narrow" 255mm front tires. :) And the back seats can't really accomodate anyone taller than 6'1".

I have never driven the 550. But, the 55 AMG is almost a perfect all around car in terms of a powerful daily driver!

@@throttleresponsemedia THANK U SIR

both sucks

@@hamzaa.8082 I'll rephrase: "which one is the least reliable?"

@@-ANDY. the 55 cars are better on paper, for both performance and reliability. Wouldn't really recommend the 63. The 55 engine and drive train are heavily overengineered.

@@ekamvirk7599 thanks!

The m113k with this 5-speed auto is actually one of, if not the best amg drivetrains. Unreliable compared to what? A Camry? Maybe...
