Mario, Doug, Drew.... wassup ?
Mr. Wiedermann,
been meaning to get a hold of you, just been really busy these past 3-4 days. I'm getting ready to go on another secret-squirrel trip this week, so just tying up loose ends. Will have the deposit completed by Wednesday.
My Coupé is currently at the dealership getting an oil change, and some un-official warranty work
from my hook-up SA guy at MBSD.
Should have it back tomorrow morning, but won't have fun driving it until I get back next Monday.
I'm totally going to miss Steve's trip out here in SoCal. I wanted to watch Citron's UHI install, and needed Steve to hook up my car to DAS to program so cool stuff into my Coupé. But will have to wait til next time.
Was also hoping he would install the Power-Folding mirrors on my wife's Sedan this weekend, but might just try to do it myself or have the AUTOWERKS cool guys help me out.
Drew, wife got a due-date of 31 May, so I gotta hurry up and get all the Modding done before the spring. Haven't gone through all the threads, but is Baby Crow here yet ???

Yup, this will be # 2.
Timing is pretty good, because my MOD fund will then become College / Retirement Fund # 2.

crazy. i couldnt even imagine having kids. i watch what my sister has to go through. its insane. i totally respect you guys for that. i dont htink i could do it. when it would come down to CLK seats or food/diapers, that would be a tough choice. good thing i dont have to make that one!

lol! CLK seats are going to take me some time. i think im going to move the AMG bumpers/spoiler ahead of the CLK seats. since the seats are going to be the most expensive of all my mods, i think ill save that one for last!

Thanks everyone!
After having the complete baby seat in my car for the test rides, I realize that I should have made the deal 2 months ago for the E55
My wife does not like her 2002 C240 enough to keep it any longer. And does not want an SUV....... Choices and changes

Frank, think family transportation,,,,, not fun for me. Can't get the wife to go SUV for herself. And I had a Suburban and don't wan't another one. I have seen so many great deals but can't figure out what is the best option. I do know that the C240 has to go.

My dissapointment with Sema was that there were way too many parts and toys for non european cars... by Wednesday I had walked all the tire section, that is where I saw the chromed SL600... the pics of that Chromed SL look way better than the car in person...
There were a few SLRs (I saw 2 in different exhibits).. I took pics of the SLR, and just today I got back to California to leave to Arizona... so no chance to upload those pics until prob Sun.
Cheers!

2 Brazilian female imports that came for SEMA and we met up there. Second pic is with the girl's parents whom I had the honor to meet in person (that is the same evening at a restraurant in Vegas)

how about a Volvo V50 or V70 or SAAB 9-3 or 9-5 wagon?
unless u want to go w/ the minivan route...then Honda or Toyota is probably the best then comes the Nissan quest.

Drew, how's it going ? Getting any sleep ?
Mr. Wiedermann, great talking to you the other day. Should have news for you regarding AMG parts later this week. Waiting on e-mail from Steve.
Doug, I hear ya on the AMG bumpers. Think about it. I personally think they would look good on any Coupé. At least get the AMG spoiler. I've added the heated/vented seats to my wish list, except I want the AMG ones from whatever AMG model made heated/vented seats to fit the Coupé: C32 ? / SLK32 ? / C55 ?
