Are you sure you really trust your car in the hands of someone else?

Nope, I won't be doing anything with it really. My SL63 is having warranty work done at the dealer, so I have a C300 and I noticed how nicely it drives. So I can only imagine how nice the C63 will be, and I'd like to just drive it around town for a week or two to get it out of my system.

Let me know if you want to go ahead with this. We can do it in a week or so once my SL comes back from service at Calabasas.

OK, I'm ready to do this -- who's ready?
It would be really nice if the C63 has IPOD on it so I'm not bored to death while driving.

How does insurance work for this type of trade? Basically on a good-faith agreement, or does personal insurance cover driving another car...what if you get pulled over? What do you tell the cop who sees this ain't your car? LOL

Juicee, I had a loaner the other day and got the same feeling.

So, are you thinking?

After all that you went through lately with your ride, maybe a change is a good thing...
