Victorious At Last

AS I PREVIOUSLY POSTED ABOUT MY INDECISION BETWEEN A M6 0R THE CLS 63, I DECIDED TO GO WITH THE BENZO OF COURSE AND AFTER TREMENDOUS NEGOTIATIONS WITH HALF A DOZEN DEALERS IN CALLY AND THE BANK (DUE TO THE TRADE IN FACTOR).I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW CLS 63 WHICH WILL BE DELIVERED TO MY DOORSTEP 2MORROW MORNING. CAN'T WAIT TO SLAM IT...

I FOUND IT FUNNY THAT EVEN THE GUYS OVER AT THE BIMMER FORUM ALSO AGREED THAT THE CLS IS A MUCH BETTER CAR...

OH YA AND THOSE RATT *******S TRIED TO GIMME THE MB FLOORMATS AS WELL BUT I MADE THEM SWITCH IT WITHE OTHER 63 THAT WAS THERE.

Excellent choice. We always knew you'd make the right decision. Welcome to the dream.

SUPRISINGLY ENOUGH THE 63 INVENTORY IS ACTUALLY PRETTY WEAK, ATLEAST HERE ON THE WEST COAST, WHICH IS A GOOD THING TO KNOW THAT THERE WONT BE TOO MANY ON THE STREETS , IVE ONLY SEEN TWO ON THE ROAD SO FAR BUT THE DRAWBACK TO THAT IS THAT IT MADE ME SETTLE FOR A DIFFERENT COLOR SCHEME THAN I INTIALLY HAD IN MIND. HOWEVER I GOT A SWEET DEAL ON IT SO IM NOT STRESSIN. I WAS REALLY IMPRESSED BY HOW MUCH OF A CLASSY DRIVE THIS CAR HAD TO OFFER AND IN MY OPINION, OUT OF ALL THE MB MODELS I FEEL LIKE THIS CAR HAD THE BEST COMBINATION OF POWER, STYLE, AND COMFORT. ITS ON POINT!
