Surprised there are few of us in MA on here. PM me if you ever need any Eurocharged parts or tunes and I will get you a discount.

I may be interested in the sunshade PM me price and how much of a pain the install is. Also any misc parts that you replaced recently such as plugs, plug wires, coilpacks? When my AMG was totaled from some idiot years ago I removed everything, even the calipers and it was fine with my insurance company.

Actually made out pretty well with Geico as far as the value on my C32. Mine was in perfect condition with 119,000 miles on it. NADA book value is around $12,975. I ended up negotiated value up to $14,500 + I get 7% state sales tax back on top of that, so approx $15,515. Not too bad...definitely more than I could have sold it for I'm sure.

What part of MA are you in? Are there every any "AMG Meets" in our area? If you're interest in the rear shades, they are in awesome shape, I think I paid close to $120 for the paid, I'd cut you good deal if you want them..

Are there any Eurocharged places in Mass? I think I do want to tune my CLS55 eventually.

In the end they do, though it is a huge hassle along the way. I'm still seeing physical therapy 2x a week for back pain, I keep getting sharp pains in my mid back since the accident.

Still waiting on the check from Geico too, they are apparently very backed up from Hurricane Sandy.

Instead of the LR3, buy my low mile ML55. (Only 43k miles) Already has a winter wheel set with blizzaks. Hard pressed to find anything better in the snow.

This way you still have an AMG, and have something awesome in the snow.
X2, that truck is NICE and a monster in the snow!!!

I am south of Boston in Easton. Always more than happy to host car meets at my place. Live on a dead end with a big turn around good for pictures right off of the best part of the infamously scenic Bay Rd. with some strings of fun S curves

As for Eurocharged, they recently just came to MA and know them well. If you would like any parts or tunes always feel free to contact me. I have talked to my buddy at EC about an AMG meet & tune day at my place
