So... here's an update on my CLK which was sold around May 21... about 4wks ago...

The buyer, 26yr old girl in the middle decided to drive the car back up to Oregon (she flew down to buy my car)...

On the way back up, there was some construction going on and she hit a big pot hole... and she blows out the tire and severely bends the wheel... shop near her house says it can't be fixed as the wheel will most likely crack in the process... so, she's now calling me wondering where she can find a replacement front wheel...

i guess women and fixed up cars don't really go hand-in-hand (not trying to flame any girls on the board here)

my poor baby...

She's hot. The blonde has "Runaway Bride" eyes though. Kinda kills it.

Well---some women and ANY car don't go hand in hand, not just a fixed up one...I "understand" MD potholes and my driving style don't go together, hence...Bullet is still stock...
