after a year of lurking and reading about this car, i finally pulled the trigger on a BS.....pics and details to follow.

I was seconds away from getting Chuck's car and i think his car is the best deal out there right now.....someone should pick it up and save themselves alot of time dealing with dealers/owners.

pics attached....odometer says 50 miles and license plate says the rest. Andre has been a pleasure to deal with, unlike those morons at Fletcher Jones.

being shipped with Newman International...car doesnt leave the closed truck, is covered, strapped by the wheels not the axles. Seems the trucking company was started by the family of a guy who had multiple Rolls Royces and didnt trust any company with his cars. Should arrive next week.

Wow 50 miles! Fantastic, be sure to break it in right!
Drive it like you stole it .... based on the sticker versus what you paid, you probably did.

Contrats, you love it. If you're like me, you'll get through the work week much quicker just thinking about driving her on the weekends...

Rightfully excited!
Congrats, the car looks great.

Let's take bets on how long the first set of tires last!

I bought this one from covercraft:




Here's the info on the cover: http://www.covercraft.com/Form-Fit.htm

Oh, and the cardboard is there to keep the tire dressing off the cover.........

Wow Chuck, you're crazy! But I like it!
Just another good reason why your car is a prime specimen.

well.....let's just say they wont be selling the other one due to a museum-like showroom they have, and want to put the remaining BS in there. It has 480 miles but noone will know or care.

Great car...I vividly remember oogling a black one Mercedes Benz of Portland had at our 2008 autoshow. Enjoy in good health!
