I know there are some extrememly early 5.5th gen out there because before I bought mine in 12/2001 I saw one in New Orleans at about 4/2001. I was hooked after I saw that bad boy. I never really payed any attention to the other 5th gen, but something about the majestic blue with the new tails I loved.

And IIRC, you get the 17" only with a sunroof if you get the Comfort and Convenience package. I don't know about the date of availability of this package.

there is a date 05/02 but mine is a 2003 so i can't be the earliest.

That's weird, mine was build in May 2001 and it's a 2001 and i guess they change to the 5.5 just shortly after May. Darn, I should have waited out for one more month then I would have have a 5.5 gen. Funny though, when I bought mine, there was three left of the 5 gen at my dealer, two SE and one GLE. They didn't get the 2002 yet, i guess they got it late.
