I too have a vehicle that only sees the light of day when its 100% sunny and no clouds in site lol.

And by the way, I too live in "farm country" where only the main roads get plowed thoroughly and I have no problems what so ever with oem rubber on my 4matic.
No hard feelings here... after your clarification, its all good! LIke i said, everybody has their own different circumstances and environments for their driving needs and conditions...

read the post again... "got rid of this for an M5 before winter"... i didn't say it was an M5! however, yes, we do have an M5!

No one claim the 550i to be an M5. . I said we got rid of the 550 for "an M5"...you guyz think i would be stupid enough to claim its an M5 in a car forum with knowledgable members when its not??? read it again before you start bashing on something you don't know about! another pointer is that nobody say anything about my C trying to look like a C63, just because it has a C63 rear diffuser. Thats another subject... No poser here... you just need better glasses to read with!

The rear quad pipes and diffuser is a nice upgrade to the C350.. That wasn't what I was saying. What it looked like to me is that you said you got rid of the M6 for "the M5" and the photo that immediately followed was a 550i with an M-style front fascia. Maybe it was a misunderstanding, but this kind of thing happens frequently on the forum.

No worries, its my fault...I had a whole paragraph wrote up and then I highlighted and backspaced nearly the whole thing. So in the process I ended up leaving out two important words in the first line which should have said "Not quite sure why anyone would have to store a C class for the winter". As in a general statement and not calling you out. And while I've never attempted to drive a C63 in winter weather, I'm still standing behind my comment that it would be challenging to say the least lol.

Still think your a poser. Post more pictures, maybe of you summer house because you get cold in your farm country mansion. ha ha

Does't matter what I think, enjoy your rides, whatever they may be!
