153k! Very nice to see it keeps on going! Mine's at 118k and she has only had 3 problems, power steering pump completely failed just replaced, MAF sensor gunked up from my mistake of using K&N airfilters, and a replaced battery! What a great car! all simple problems, well besides the damn OEM rims which keep cracking! LOL
Mike, did you have to replace your shocks/struts? if so when did you?

There have been lawsuits over the camshaft materials and something about the pistons I think in the 6.2L V8, supposedly they predispose to early failure in some cases. There were some links up a while ago. A quick search yields this http://amgmarket.com/2011/10/mercede...mg-v8-engines/ which I think was what I read before.
