You bought that white 65 for your wife?!
Whadda' guy!

I think both of you guys should start a tire fund, you'll be needing rears pretty quickly.

Don't forget brakes. Front pads and rotors set you back $3,000. My wife says "if you didn't have to brake from 120 so often they'd last longer." True about the tires too, but what would be the point in that?

Let me understand. An 05 cl65 for 101k with 1k mi? You saved about 85k without tax, lic and docs. Not bad for a $185K car. Consider it a new preowned that you stoled from someone.

Still has the new car smell?

It is a shame about the depreciation on the 12 cyl cars.

I sold my SL65 spot (#1) for $25K, and that car was $209K out the door. So the buyer was into it for $234K. He sold it a year later, with 2200 miles on it for $110K. Now, that is scary!
