It's still exciting to get a new car but it's not what it used to be. This will be our 19th Benz.

Let's put this perspective. The 19 cars were purchased over a period 29 years. The first one was delivered in the Fall of 1983. It was a Blue 1984 380SL. The only power equipment in the car was power windows excluding power steering and brakes. The top was manual as were the seats. I paid $48,000.00 for the car. That was a lot of money for a car back then.
