Hey the V8 Kompressor Badges are missing on this 1

?? R U sure its an AMG??? Also the S which you'll state is a 55 AMG is actually a 500. Its just that it was badged an AMG. This is the Dark Grey 1.

Rehaan · 11th March 2004, 00:22

Hey RG,

The "V8 Compressor" badges arent missing.
They are only located on the RHS of the car. Im not sure but it is possible that later models have it on both sides? But generally when u see a CL55 with these 19"ers it has the badging only on the RHS.

cheers

Nope They are supposed to be on both the sides. He has 19" Wheels???

Rehaan · 11th March 2004, 03:32

Hey bud,

You are right about it being on both sides. (definitely in the current models etc etc)

However im not sure about in the older models...ie 2001 etc if it is on both sides? im not sure...maybe im wrong.....

and about the 19"s... these wheels are avail in 18" and 19".....my bad.

Heres a pic of a very official cl55 without the side badging...but thats probably for safety reasons! ;-]

cheers

v12 · 11th March 2004, 15:01

ya rehaan is right. the badges are only on the RHS. I have a pic of the rear also. will post it later.

Rehaan · 11th March 2004, 15:44

Im not 100% sure im right though.....

however, newer models have it on both sides for sure.

cya

Dippy · 11th March 2004, 16:23

Hey RG are you talking bout the so called S55 AMG at Choksi garage grey with the star on the grille? Is it an S 500?? Cause after seeing an AMG badge on it, a few days later , I saw an S320 badge on it with no AMG. Its an HR reg if I'm not wrong...

Cheers

CL55 AMG
