It's Been Fun, Gang....

But too many little things and lousy service have forced me to say adios to my 2004 C230KSS. I was a loyal Infiniti owner (2 of 'em) prior to trying out the MB. Check out the new ride here:

Yeah, I know, they're very different cars.

Sorry to give up the superb gas mileage of my C, but I am pleased with my decision.

Thanks for the chatter over the years! (Now I gotta get rid of the winter wheel/tires from the C!)

Agreed. Hope you have fun with your Infiniti, although it looks like you will.

Yeah, those 3 panels cover everything up. Access doors for wiper fluid, brake fluid, and compartment lid for the battery. They do, however, snap of easily for quick access to everything.

I had an M35 rental from hertz last weekend. Handling and drivetrain were good.. but I had 2 different cars and they both rattled around the monitor. It was really annoying. Not a bad car though.
