I done it! Never thought I would do it.

Yesterday, I was looking around at newer Mercedes. They were lease returns, two of them were E320 but a lot of C classes. I was sitting in 03' E320 with only 36k miles on it. After 15 minutes at the dealer, I never thought I would ever really give up my 96 for a 03. They gave me a good offer on my old car and now the proud owner of the new 03'. I never really thought I would really get this car. Now just kind of struck me how much I really like the car after having it for two days. I'll post the pic of my new E320

I was in the same boat as Alex,so far my dealer showed me a '05 Acura RL ,an
'03 320,and even an 06 Lexus GS300 (all nice by the way,but zero room in the back seat for my 14 year old girl),so I'll stay with my ride

They gave me 8500 for it since it's has over 100k miles on it, the condition is pristine, the only thing is the window regulator went out on my rear driver door window. that was it.
