I think everyone tilted it so that we wouldn't instantly melt when we had to drive them off. =\.

See, you totally want to push the saltiness. In fact, those people doing the burnouts salted all over the Saprissa meet =\.

nah, no pepper for me.

well the dude that did the burnout is a retard, he has such a bad attitude (read his post on benzworld).

the guy that did the donut actually apologized and is pretty cool about it.

btw, did anyone take pics of that pesky audi that showed up?

Perhaps I live this incredibly sheltered life, but I'm shocked by this guys attitude and lack of shame.

I hope Carlos is able to tell people like that, they are not invited.

What really burns me, was his comment about the C class crowd, and our stock rides. "They shouldn't be shown...."

WTF? I'm proud of my aged ride, and prouder still to count you guys as my friends. Talking crap on us was unecessary, but solidified in my mind the guys mental capacity.

If Carlos won't tell him off, I will. Then he has the audacity to call the rest of the group "ricers"? **** him.

Actually, guys, that one dude makes me laugh. See, to me, the validity of negative comments can only be validated when it affects the people that they are directed towards. In my case, anytime people like to generalize "C Class" owners, I just laugh.

Thing is, I'm almost 30, so I'm not exactly "young" anymore. I work in the entertainment industry and do decent for myself and just don't waste my time justifying anything to ignorant people. I've heard it all before. Even people who I consider "friends" give me crap for owning a "C Class". My answer to them is always the same..."When I'm rollin' down Sunset, whose car do you think will get more attention and looks? Your stock 2002 S Class or my Cleanly modified and unique C Class?"...That's right. 9 x's out of 10, it'll be my car...hahaha. No matter what, they're both still Mercedes Benz.

That's the whole thing, the more attention we give to people like that, the easier it is for us to get sucked into the BS, instead of concentrating on the fact that we'er ALL enthusiasts. We all have our own personal tastes and preferences, but I have no reason to bring ANYBODY down. If one person chooses to have a limited mentality, that's their choice, but doesn't mean that I'm going to associate myself with them or validate their insecurities.

Enough of my soap-box speech. Main thing is, as long as you enjoy your car, it really doesn't make a difference what anybody thinks.

Drex's .02 for the day. Back to the regularly scheduled w203 topics, i.e. "Where can I get some rims", "Should I lower my car?" "Can 20's fit on my car?", "How fast have you taken your C Class?" (sorry, just had to end it with some comedy).

I think these pictures have finally convinced me that white is the best color for the W203.

Drex, damn, 30? Might as well pack it in....
get a cadillac, and retire in Florida...
The funny thing about getting older is that
nothing changes that much, I mean like you don't wake up one day, and go wow, I'm old, I should ACT old.
You wake up the same as any other day, improving, hopefully making your life better, one day at a time, looking forward to doing the same things you've always enjoyed, or even new things as they come along.

The only thing that changes, is the perspective of younger people around you, of you. And suddenly you recall thinking some time in the past as someone your age as being old...and now you're that age...and yet, you feel the same.

Ha, after I split the meet Sat., I met a lady in Laguna Beach,
and ended up going out with her on Sun. at Dana Point...
drove back around 9pm, (dang, was hopin' she'd take me home...he he) and woulda been home around 3 but one of the bottom pans had all but one of the screws fall out..
and the damn thing was dragging on the road. Had to drive for a few miles with my E blinkers on till I got to and exit, Mostly a pain, trying to fix it
on an exit off I5 in the dirt, wore a hole through it, and the exit I was on stunk to hi heaven like Cow ****e. Thought I was gonna hurl.
I can barely get my arm under the car, had to use the crappy jack...rearranged the bolts that were left to hold it till I can get new ones.
Got home at 5am as things were....better than sitting in bumper to bumper traffic. The road was still deserted a 5am, but at 6...it'd been a different thing. Coffee!

I got your back on this one Ling. I cannot believe the BS he's pulling on Benzworld... like C230_617, he's definitely not invited or wanted...

someone needs a "THIS IS SPARTA" kick to the chest. cool, you can 'whip' your boat around. given the space and said idiocy, we could have ALL done it. however, that wasn't what the meet was about. geesh. some ppl gotta make up for their 'small comings'
