Unhappy Somthing Terrrrrible!

i have just been informed by my father that he might sell the E500!!!!!!!!! my face went pale...... i was like "for what?" he said a 1999 SL500. i almost started to cry. "we alredy have a fine Goose in the family dad" i said, he replied "but this has the sport pacage and its a steal!" i said how the sport package is cut springs!!!!!! im trying to convince him that the E500 is much faster and much cooler than the SL500. i hope he doesnt sell the porsche made E500!!!


that will be a sad day...

Sale the E500 to me or trade with my 300E and then you can sell the 300E for the SL500.

No, but honestly, hope he doesn't sale the E500...what a shame that would be.

Yeah, continue to convince your dad to keep the 500E. Definitely a rare car and definitely worth keeping in your collection of cars. Especially since you said it's a renntech...or modified with some RennTech...then that just even more reasons to keep it.
