n00b to the forum...

As the title states, I'm a n00b to the Mercedes Forum. Lurked for a while. Searched and found a lot of answers.

Now I'll ***** out some pics I took...

Welcome to the forums. Beautiful car and great pics. My heart kind of stopped when I saw you parked underneath those trees. I could only imagine all those leaves infiltrating my clean car.

My wife stood by my side while I dumped $$$ into Maxima years ago. (mostly suspension)
She stood by when I did the same with a G35. (mostly suspension)
After making a promise that I would leave my Subaru bone stock... Lots of $$$ later we were at 320 HP and 340 TQ at the tires on a Mustang dyno, running mid 12's in the 1320.

I was going to get a Golf TDI. My wife found the Mercedes and said "Wouldn't you rather have the car you've dreamed of having instead of a new Golf?" How awesome is that. She found me a Benz when I was looking at a Golf.

I made a deal with my wife that I wouldn't modify this car. I will be honoring this deal.

Aside of window tint, nav map update and maybe a rear spoiler, there is not much I am going to do, aside of really enjoying driving it.
