C32/C55 AMG
What did you drive before your c32/c55?
I was going through my closet to see what I could get rid of and I saw my led tail lights from my w202, which was my previous car. I had so many fond memories of this car. I never got to do a couple of mods that I wanted to do and end up selling it.

Here are some pics:





And a pic of the car before that one. Looked fast, but it only had the original 305 with 185hp, lol. I loved this car.

Don't have pics. C32 is weekend car for '99 A4 & '01 A6.
Prior cars:
'01 Isuzu Rodeo (traded in for A6)
'92 Mazda 626 (gave to family member, so got the A4)
'93 Accord (reliable but totaled in accident)

02 c32 99 superduty
I had a 99 c230k which I miss dearly! It was my first Benz and I should have kept it. But I had 6 cars at the time and was running low on parking so I let her go. That was a sad day.

I love everything about the Mercedes and I think it's a much better car.

Same way I feel about my first car...2001 maroon ML320. Over-weight, under-powered, super-loved.

I traded my 2000 C5 6-speed Corvette in for my C55 after dealership screwed it up soooo bad (and charged me soooo much) that I felt it would never be right again. And I only took it in for an oil change and state inspection. I'm still not over my anger with Chevy

C-55 -> Porsche 996 911 C2 w/ Aerokit -> BMW M Roadster -> Supercharged Miata (lots of changes to that car ) -> Another Miata -> Jeep Wrangler -> Mazda 323 Sedan (great little car) -> Isuzu Impulse -> Triumph Spitfire -> Motobecane moped (great when you're 13) -> go-cart (some would say the Miata's were a repeat here)

Miss the inexpensive fun of the supercharged Miata (180 rwhp in 2300 pounds) but was intoxicated with the torque of the ///M Roadster. Fell in love with the 911 but drive WAAAAY too many miles each year for it as a daily driver. Always loved the AMG C classes so here I am ...
