Smile My New Ride

One would think moving from a Ferrari CS to a CLK BS would be somewhat of a let down ... well, one could not be more wrong. The BS is so comfortable to drive, not that I couldn't get physically comfortable in the CS, it's that I feel so much more relaxed ... you can just drive the BS without the drama of who's looking, don't get too close, must stay within eyesight, how many miles, etc. , etc. etc. There's something about the BS that reminds me of what may have been my favorite car ... a 996 GT2 ... compact, fast, luxury, fast, tight, fast, german engineering, fast, silver and last but not least, fast.

Here is a link to a car meet today with a number of pics of my BS and my buddy's new SLR

Glad you're enjoying it.

Last month at the Dallas C&C, I parked next to a Scuderia.
I thought the Black might be rendered invisible. I stepped back and watched people take time to appreciate both cars.
Turned out it wasn't invisible after all.
Then I got to drive it home!

Congrats and enjoy and drive safe. You have a Ferrari F50 I see in the back. Is that yours or is the car at a dealer? I am a huge F40 and F50 fan

Unfortunately, the F50 is not mine ... fortunately, it belongs to one of my close friends who has a quite the collection which I've had the pleasure of riding shotgun in all of them (except for two recent ones).

Thanks everyone for the good words ... I plan to enjoy this car for many years.
