well ladies and gentlemen, im back, we have the car waiting to be put in the garage!!!! it is so sweet, i love it...it is very very quiet, only with a little bit of tire noise......also, it drives great, and is very very fast....i love the lights on the inside, and if anyone has thier e-class right now, there is a light for the door handles, it is on the top of the plastic part.....i dont know what to say though, it is really nice, also, chrome is a must on the 500.....only 690 bucks, and it looks like 18's, but rides like 16's...i also like the radio system, listening to busta rhymes is a must with the logic 7...any pics you guys want of the car, its a obs blk, w/ stone interior...has all the goodies...ill take pics this week, also, a good way to check if the ticking sound in your car is there is to pop the hood, start the car, press gass a little and see if the engine rocks to the left or right more than it does on a s500, or any other vehicle with the 500 engine, thats the easiest way

bmms8,

I didn't have any busta rhymes to try, but I did give Eminem a listen. I think the Logic 7 system yawns at rap. I'm not knocking the genre at all, it just doesn't seem to challenge L7. Try a recording of anything well-produced with a wide dynamic range...you'll be even more impressed!

Bmms8: First of all congratulations.

1) Since your car is an elegance you do not have the gauge cluster that is standard on the Sport/Avangarde version. Of course you can change it to look like that but it will take you to buy the whole cluster from a sport/avantgarde car.

2) Chrome looks good not for any 500, it will look good if the car color is right which in your case it is.

Finally, the least you can do for this great community that had to read 1500 post from you is to post a lot of pics even from inside the exhaust pipe.


Have a good one and enjoy your ride, I will keep on waiting till Christmas when Santa is suppose to bring my car home directly form the North Pole.

Best Wishes,

Enrique

Home link is a little tricky to program, could you find the learn button on the garage opener box on your ceiling?

BTW, if you have your permit, will your dad let you drive it?

Just wait till after break-in. The engine is still getting loose at 2k I think it will continue to get faster.

You know what the C32 feels like...businesspark, ahem. Say, whose tire marks are those?

Buying a digicam or borrowing one?

BTW, the frequency of your posts has tailed off after the car came. I guess once you have the real thing, the board gets boring
