My parents don't give me an allowance, and I have 2 jobs!
I also maintain an A in all my classes except super hard ones, like AP US History.

I'll be 37 in April and we just got our first Mercedes. 2008 C350 P2 package....Still researching the dreaded Iphone phonebook issues. Since we just got the car 2 days ago, I'm still reading the hell outta these forums. What a PITA as far as tech integration.

Age is just a number! It has no meaning until you assign it a meaning. Good for the young and the old for stepping into a W204! I'm glad we can all come together to discuss our cars without judging one's comments due to their assigned number (age)

I agree. But still, you feel uncomfortable when middle aged people give you the death stare as you get in/get out of your car.......

I just got out of a W204 C350 and into a W212 Sedan and nobody gave me a "death stare." Of course I have a habit of getting into and out of MB's quite often...

But I am only 78 and these "middle aged" types have not matured enough to appreciate your success and love of the MB marque.

There's no reason to feel "uncomfortable" around middle aged men staring you down. At the end of the day it's just a car, that anyone receiving a decent pay check can afford. I work hard day in and day out to make payments on the car, as well as other expenses, and you can stare me down all day but it won't mean a thing.

Off topic, but I just want to mention that your photography is excellent.
