I am curious to know what we all going to drive in next 10 years. Driving CLK's right now. So it looks like the average age for the CLK's owners on this forum is 21. Not bad if you ask me. Man, where I live right now there is about 5 CLK's total. And only 2 of them are young guys, including me. The only meet I can roll to is a 4 banger Honda/Acura meet

I'm pretty sure that in 10 years from now I'll be driving an electric car, and its quite likely I'll still have my CLK. I've had Nissan, GM, Chrysler, Audi, BMW, Mini, MB, Volvo, Renault, VW, Land Rover, Saab and a Hummer, so you might say I've got "tools" to compare them all. I've kept my W208 because it really is a lovely car (kept it with low mileage, just 25,000). Few cars have given me so much pleasure as this one. Just sold an Audi A6 and I'm planning to change my wife's X5 for an ML. I guess I'll be buying another Mini to replace the A6, since Minis are very much fun to own and drive.

Oh, I'm 36 but with this car I feel 21

Notice, I said...."together" ...it's because she's an Benz, not because she's a modded, high power Benz...She's straight factory(silver); nothing to run home and tell your friends about...never the less, I'll try to get a pic of her posted soon...
