Congratulations on your car!

Oh and thanks for sharing your gratuitous political BS on a CAR forum. Now that you drive an E class, may I suggest that you try to be a bit more classy and not shove your Infantile political BS on everyone? I am sure there are enough political forums that would love your political drivel so try to spare the car forums... What's your point? That history started in 2009?

I guess some people just like to play the race card because, well, it's simple and easy.

"Stereotyping is the sport of simpletons." (I forgot who said that, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't Homer Simpson.)

Another round of ICE
I'm a part-time visitor, as our E is my secondary use vehicle, but any good will and admiration of your judgement evaporated as I scrolled down. This is a car forum and not a venue for politics, especially such ad hominem attacks which can easily go in both directions and deteriorate this entire site. Particularly unfortunate is that you were apparently unable to develop a sig which, at least, addressed an issue, rather than ethnic stereotypes.

I'm confused, i had seen the sig from another member i thought it was funny. If you don't have a sense of humor then i suggest you lighten up. No need to be a jerk and attack me because im 23 and drive a better car then you.

We ALL have a sense of humor but thats not even close to being funny for anyone regardless of what you think of the man. You are way out of line. Your humor is childish just like your age and I do drive better cars than you.

+1

Racist and cultural stereotyping has no place despite one's political views. Again, it's simply an easy knee-jerk type of characterization that requires no effort or forethought. It only reveals a lack of sophistication and zero maturity.

But the OP's retort was 10x more immature. "I have a better car than you, na-na, na-na." That just seals it even tighter. Don't forget, "better" is only relative; it simply depends on where you started from....

Next time take a moment and use your thinking cap, assuming you can find it. Or even own one.

And yeah, we all have a great sense of humor. It just happens to be at a totally different level.

The OP has a GIF as their signature that shows the President of the US as a black gansta rapper throwing money around with other black gansta ballers.

Point being is that nobody here has issues of free speech or not agreeing with political issues, but racism and stereotyping is simply juvenile and counterproductive. Especially on the W211 forum (there is an off topic forum for politics, etc..)

It's just like if I said everybody from Boston or New England are Southie Micks who drive around in a cheap used luxury cars just to look cool in their trashy neighborhoods.

But when the OP uses the old "you're just jealous because your car isn't as nice" kind of response, then he just put his d**k into a hornet's nest.

Probably best just to let it all go, imho. Let the guy enjoy his new purchase and keep the thread unlocked so members can see his pics.

Well I think his sig is funny. It's a joke. I get it.

That being said the comment above is about as classless as it gets, and a typical young punk mindset. Someday you'll realize there's more to life than living in an apartment check to check and driving what used to be an expensive car. If a car costs less than a newHonda Accord, trust me man, it's really nothing to brag about.

Also, if you're going to be a ********, at least spell correctly. Someday you'll drive a nicer car than all of us, but until then just be nice.

I deleted the signature,didn't mean to offend anyone. I can see there is a few obama voters in here so its done with. I do not jump at members cursing or making fun im cool calm and collective. So no need for arguing.

Anyway took some pictures today,my e350 4 matic is fully loaded. My father has a 03 e500 and i drove it,and it made me want to get an e class.

The last pic has my rolls royce silver spur with the benz

Unless I am mistaken that's when a car has been modified or things done to it to a point where Mercedes feels whatever was done/happened has had an adverse effect on the car's components and they just don't want to deal with it anymore... I think messing a lot with the engine/ECU or the suspension would result in this.

Another reason why people need to do a ppi on any purchase and check the VMI. The VMI would show a flagged car. Or just pay a few extra $$ and get a CPO'd car. Then the onus is on the dealer.

Given the your previous post all I can say is it couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Guess this karma thing works after all.
