Nice work. Probably a tad more fun than the GLK I've been running around in for the past week.

I'm out of 5K. Waiting for my insurance to pick up the claim but my policy was 'dropped' the night I got the SLS and got reinstated 2 days after because I forgot to update my easy-pay info (switching banks). Rental company is saying the windshield got damaged but I know it's BS. My attorney said he can void the contract if they keep dealing with me in bad faith. I offered to pay for the repair but no news. They just kept the whole 5.

funny how that always seems to happen at the absolute wrong times.

honestly, if they're making stuff up to keep the whole 5k like i had a feeling they would, i would really try to find a way to void the contract. that age change loophole might be your best bet.

really sorry to hear that. you should dispute that through your bank immediately. unfortunate lesson but this is largely why you should use a CC for deposits. GL man

I'm going to dispute it with my bank as soon as it gets posted. It's still pending. Lesson learned.

It got hit and run while it was parked (some front bumper damage, nothing serious). I decided to take care of every single detail and make it look brand new again. Mostly deep dents from haters in school as well as a big dent on the roof. The gate hit me when I was leaving my place. The trunk was keyed so it's getting painted. 60% of the car is getting painted lol. I took pictures of the trunk in case they mess up the CL 63 spacing. I was going to wrap the car right after the body work is done but decided against it. Vinyl wrap doesn't look good at all when you look at it closely.

Lack of communication between the people at the dealer and the people that are actually working on the car. Good thing I have access to that private warehouse where they fix the cars. I went in today and took care of all the guys making sure the car will be ready in the next 48 hours. The people that are actually working on the car said it will be ready on Thursday but the girl at the dealer keeps saying tomorrow

I didn't want to make a scene (yet). But I know my car will be ready Thursday. Can't wait to get it back!! I'm tired of the GL lol

Here is why I took the car to the shop in first place:
