High 11's will be fine for me. Thx all for the comments. I'm sure the w205 will be fine once all the bugs are sorted.

Man, dumping the car off to the wife because of a dash squeak. Tough crowd! Lol. Welcome back to the 204. At least you still have the 205 in the family for when you feel the urge.

thx max... yeah she was kind enough to bail me out.

I was actually heading to the dealer to buy a 507ed.... when I had a change of heart to buy the w205..... this works out in the end.

I spend half a day trying to locate the squeeking...... pulled part of the dash apart, kick-panel, and also dove into the fire wall engine bay pulling strut tower/firewall support braces....... with no luck. It's coming from the HUD area.

The warranty is up on the w204 in 20 mo's... then mod time begins.

I was talking about the retarded reasoning, and high power boasting, not frequency of posting

Some of us actually use these cars for what they were built for, and have real experiences to post about

(says the guy who has far more posts than I do in far less time on the forum... smh...)

Lmao...Look at you, "some of us have real experiences" Ok buddy...Ok. Half of you guys think eurocharge V5 tune is the best tune on the planet for the C63. Some of the **** I see you betas post is hilarious, reminds me of a group of girls in high school. Just look at the threads ..."OMFG I GOT EUROCHARGE!! HOLY **** I CAME!!IOFJKLFJDFKLJF OMGGG!!!!! I GOT A TUNE!!! HOLY ****!!!!!!" Like what? the demographic of this forum must be <18 year old females. Even you, look at you...listing off all your mods..you wanna talk about power boasting? you have to list your mods off to look cool. Reality is, no one gives a rats ***,

And my high post count is from talking to retards like you, and about 1,000 came from mine and inenguers thread.

How is witnessing real world track times from C63s running those times retarded reasoning, you dumb ****.

High power boasting? I don't even own the car, how am I boasting exactly? Why don't you list that you have 35% tint in your mods, too. Who's boasting about the C63?


Damn, I thought the E55 guys were a bunch of stuck up pansies, you ego-maniacs are far worse.

You're from NY, makes complete sense. All of you are tools up there...

Low 11's with LTH, "good tires", and a tune? Unlikely.

Not mature to go generalizing an entire group of people from a state because of your arguing with one person.

I know i could search for this but as it came up earlier... Where is the right hand drive w205 made?

Haven't driven one but the interior looks amazing on the 205 (ignoring the ipad). Exterior not so much.

If we're wishful thinking, make that a w204 black series so we can put meaty rubbers in the rear too.

There is a matte silver 507 ed @ MB North Houston....... I 'might' be unloading the w205.... up to her.... then she'll get her white 2014 c63 back... and I'll grab the 14 matte silver 507 coupe.

Yeah she's a perfect fit for a gear-head like me...... I bought one of these stealth ebikes that goes 50mph...... and she was jealous...... so I got her a used one.... and she's all excited now.

She sounds great.

My car is the '14 matte platinum 507 coupe -- It's a really nice color, have to hand-wash of course since it's matte but I've always preferred washing my cars myself.

My wife's 'cars' are all about size, Suburban, Merc GL 450, basically, the Texas station wagon.... She surprised me when she bought a big scooter (basically a Vespa) on impulse, but so far she's stayed out of the speed zone -- probably a good thing for us all....
