Little longer wait...

for the E320 CDI - went to dealer on Saturday to check in (we were in the area) and after a Netstar check, it is actually on a different boat than what he told me. It is on the Takasago due to dock on 4/25/05 - so three more weeks should be the extent of the wait. On a good note, they had a C class in Everest Green so I was able to see the color in real - it is beautiful. Looks black unless the sun hits it just right. That with the charcoal interior should look nice. I also have a very nice set of BBS rims ready to put on it when it gets here. I am not a very patient person so the wait is killing me .

I agree...

I don't think I have seen many "green" cars where I actually liked the color - when I saw the C Class I was thinking that Benz even does green well = tastefully

Wilhelmsen web site says your boat will be in Baltimore 4/26. Unfortunately, the Takasago doesn't seem to be transmitting weather updates so that you could track it. www.sailwx.info doesn't have any position on it since July '04. Your call sign is LACR5.
