Is it a 5.5? I thought they were 4.6L. My dads W220 is a 4.6L, but it is a bit older than the CLS 550.

Wait, you have a W140 S600 AND a CLS 550?

No.
Sooner or later the S600 won't be mine anymore..

Gotcha. Yes, 5.5 liter. The 2012s and newer come with the 4.7L Twin Turbo.
Carry on.

Alright then, the 550 actually does stand for engine displacement. The S500 used to mean LWB model, instead of engine displacement, which always slightly annoyed me.

Well, it's quite a long story. Prepare a popcorn.
First off, my neighbour that own the CLS want to marry his girl. He need a wedding car, a blue mercedes. So he borrows mine for a week. And he said if I love the CLS I could keep it.
And after 3 days..
I maybe trade my s600.
more power, lighter, faster, more economical, more comfortable..

Better idea.
Take the CLS550, sell it, buy yourself several W140 S600s

Mmm
No. I've give up on W140. The handling of CLS is killing me, millions time better than my S600.
Plus it's more economical, so I don't have to visit gas station every 3 yards anymore.
And my father still keeping his W140 500SEL, so if I miss her just borrow my father's car.
