Finally got her!

Yesterday must have been the longest day in my life! I spent it waiting anxiously for my new C55. The trucker brought the car at 6:30 last night. There is nothing that crests that moment when you see the car for the first time, as well as that new car smell. Not to be overly dramatic here, but I am sure some of you fellow car fanatics can appreciate what I mean.

Now comes the hard part, having to drive very temperate for the next 1000 mile break-in period (pure torture in a car like the C55).

I will post pics shortly

Where did you buy it from?
I bought the car from a dealer in South Carolina through e-bay. It's an 2005 and I got an awesome deal, it does not have any of the packages (i.e. lighting or premium) and I paid 48,900!
