Self employed civil engineer. Always been into classic cars, so I currently own two "young classics", 1992 and 1993 500E's. I consider them to be well engineered works of art. Also own a Magma Red 2003 SL500 which I also consider to be one of the most beautifully styled cars MB ever made.

Bro... what do you do? It sounds like you're at best an undergraduate student with some upper middle class parents?

Greetings everyone.

29 and I work remotely as a Cisco VOIP/Network engineer. I drive a '12 W212 BT. I'm not surprised to see that a majority of people here are in the engineering field. I'm curious as to what the response would be in the s-class forums.

Again, worry about yourself pal. What i do, have done, or are going to do is NONE of your concern, nor should you have to worry about it. You THINK I'm a undergrad student at best, alright, thats YOUR opinion. But i know what I'm capable of, your opinion doesn't dictate my future.... as long as i can please my family, and most of all MYSELF in my life choices, i could care less about the opinion of a imbecile on a car forum...

I agree. The topic is what do you do for a living. Not what do you do and prove you have your earned enough money to own a mb. If someone is studying and that is what they do then that is what they do. I had a nice lex when I was in college. My dad cares crap about cars so he didn't care if he got me a nice car at the time vs himself. Big deal.

Hey, I have a Honda Civic hatchback when I was in college, which burns a quart every other day I drive around campus and town. I had a case of the cheapest oil you can find in Walmart in the trunk at all times!

As much time I've served on Jury Duty lately, I could get by with "responsible citizen" but the $25/day would not feed my decades long Mercedes-Benz addiction (I'm 48). Currently, I'm in Enterprise Sales in the wireless solutions arena.

What do you do during the day, then? If I were independently wealthy and didn't have to work, I'd be spending a lot more time with my daughter, and also the golf course.

Funny even when you don't work how busy the days can get running around doing crap.

Tell me about it, I'm busy as a bee. Actually I'm self-employed and probably not as wealthy as 2014sportplus, but I have a good and well appreciated life. I am happy to wake up healthy every morning.

No job title, former hardware engineer who found IT more interesting in the early 90's. T-minus ten years (or so) to retirement. Kids raised, so sorry Janice, I'm the one who bought me a Mercedes Benz.

When you ship your car from one state to another, I'm the guy who does it. Work for the largest enclosed specialized auto transporting company in the US. Been a car nut for 63 years. Was told my first word was "car" instead of "mom" which explains a lot. Now on my 12th Mercedes, got my first one right out of collage; a '72 280C. Have a '13 ML350BT and an '02 S500.
