Sounds like she's totaled. Time to start shopping...AGAIN


Took me over a year to find this beast
Man that sucks! I'm sure it'll all work out tho.

I'm 99% CLS55! I'm thinking IWC maybe. I've got 3 sets of rims for it and some other goodies ready to go. Plus I only owned it for 8 months and didn't have time to really enjoy it. Bang for the buck, it's a pretty tough car to beat!

Thanks man! Yeah no injuries and it's just a car. A phucking gorgeous, loud, sexy, fast car. But still just a car. I went and test drove a S65 today and have narrowed my CLS hunt down to a couple of IWC editions. I'll be back up and running in no time. Decisions, decisions...


I'll update with the new whip shortly

Exactly, it's just a material object that can easily be replaced.

And wow! CLS IWC or S65? You got a tough decision to make man! Best of luck.

Ok, be gentle. Its the first time showing my car here. I've only had the car 4 months and its taken alot to get it to where its at now. I've had to replace two front wheel bearings, the front air suspension, a switch for the side mirrors, and now most recently the drive shaft. I did all of the work myself and I cant tell you how happy I am to FINALLY be able to drive this car. It was worth the wait and frustration. I just hope it will stay together on me.

Count on it! I'm putting a deposit down today as soon as I hear from the shop that she's good to go mechanically. If that's the case it'll be here by the end of the month.
