Where is the best place to get.....

accessories like GTech Pro or AP22 or any other MB accessories in the Los Angeles area? Is there a shop that carries a lot of accessories for W203? I will be staying in the Beverly Hills. Also, can anyone tell me which car rental company offers European cars for rent other than Chevolet Cavaliers or Pontiac Sunfires? Almost all car rental companies that I checked over the web carry American cars only (maybe a few have Corollas and Accent)! I am not looking for F355, but perhaps a C240 or 320? Thanks in advance!

You can get the G-Tech on E-Bay pretty cheap. As far as rental's, their's a place that rents cool cars in LA called 310 Accessories. The most expensive car they have is 1,800 but for only 1,300 you can get a Bentley Arnage. Also Budget of Beverly Hills rents more common cars like MBs, BMWs and stuff.

Hey, I think Arnage is out of question, I am not looking for cool cars, I just want cars other than American cars. I'll settle for an Honda Accord if there's no MB or BMWs around.

I'll see what they have at Beverly Hills Budget, thanks a lot!!

Any restaurants that I MUST go?

I saw an ad on TV from one of the major rental places (although I can't recall which one), they now have some kind of "prestige" rental program and offer Volvo's, Jag's and Land Rovers (notice they're all FoMoCo products). Probably be more reasonable than a specialty boutique rental place. BTW, picked up my GTech on Ebay - I think for around $90, only ever saw an AP on there once and it went for about the price I'd seen advertised in European shops/websites.

Cheers, BT
