New guy, New car

Hey everyone. My name is Scott Cavadini. My 2007 Saks 5th Ave E350 will be here Tuesday. Can't wait. I had to buy one haha. I am moving into the E from a 2004 WRX that had a ton of mods in it which used to be my baby/drag car. It ran a best of 12.62@111mph on the old setup. I put methanol injection/built 6 speed tranny in it before selling it last week. Here are some pics of my old ride and I will post pics of the E as soon as it arrives. I look forward to meeting you all.

Nice WRX and pics! Can't wait to see your E. Why didn't you get an E550?

I just fell in love with the Saks. I am not really going for speed with this car. I am building a project car to build specifically for drags this winter and just wanted something nice to drive daily.

It's going to be nice to have a classy daily, and then have a race car instead of having to have my fast car be what i drive everyday. If that makes sense, i'm kind of mumbling haha.

I really like the Saks rims, and wish I could have factory-specified them on my 07 E550.

The wheels are awesome. I was jsut going to locate a Obsidian Black/Sahara Beige/black E350 with P2/Sport but then I was lucky enough to find this Saks for dealer trade. I like the AMG wheels a lot more than the sports.

TWO MORE DAYS, you have no idea how hard it is to sleep at night lol

Nice WRX you have there. Glad to see another previous Subaru owner moves up a few notches to the world of Benz.
