Buy the e500 and live in it. That way rent and car payment is combined into one! You'll also have the nicest car and house around!

With the above mentioned options for getting quick cash you should at least be buying one or all of the upcoming supercharged E55, SL55, CL55 or S55. If you are going to dream - dream bigger and don't wish for just a E500. That is too modest. Your dreaming is not high enough!

6) find 6 more haters and split payments by seven. Every member of the gang will drive the car one day a week!
7) involve E500 in a car accident with you. Hopefully, good breaking ability of the new car will save your life. Then blackmail an owner to buy you a new car.
8) sell some parts of your body.

#9) Become officer of large corporation, lie to stock holders and directors about profits, get them to pay and loan you millions based on false market cap, cash out your options at high water mark, then cite job stress and quit before the SEC closes in, and buy AMGE55 so you can keep moving fast enough to evade authorities, disgruntled employees and stockholders.
