Your significant other for (E-Class W212) owners only?
#51
Thanks Guy....that is all I'm saying. Move on K-A please!!!
#52
Sorry, Jim. There's no rule on this forum that says only M-B owners allowed.
It's really not a big deal to me but I'll stick around just to spite the few weirdo's who get miffed that "one of theirs" could have jumped ship. Don't complain about the heat and call out "ridiculous" when it's you guys turning up the furnace. Perhaps you missed all the "E-attacks" by "steelgrey", yourself and a couple of others which were unprovoked.
And here's the significant other I had during the time I had my E. I drove it cross State seemingly hundreds of times, and it was insanely durable and reliable. Rarely ever washed it, parked it outside, and after over 2 years sold it for just $200 less than what I bought it for!

I'm not going anywhere, bud! I was but not anymore! NOW they'll have to ban me in order to get me to stop contributing to the W212 forum.
Some of you guys are waaaay too sensitive to keeping viewpoints conformed to your choice of vehicle. I could understand if I was ragging the W212 in every thread. I haven't done that once!
Where the hell were you guys when it was me battling all the W212 haters coming in here? I was like the lone ranger, now you guys are all pack-of-wolves-style!
Bring it on.

Thanks man! I really don't understand what the HELL some people's issues are here. I haven't recklessly "bashed" the W212 anywhere. Saying I like my new car better or worse or whatever is something any intelligent adults should be able to civilly handle.
I haven't YET, but MAN I am thinking about it! How much do they run? I'd love Dinan or something OEM-approved. This thing is super fast to me right now, with the N55/SAT 8 Speed combo, so I can only imagine it with the Chip!

I wouldn't put too much into OEM approved as there really arent any. Best bet is one that is tried and true and i can vouch for which is Burger Motorsports. They have thousands of the tunes out there with no known problems and a hugely loyal following. It is CANbus integrated so from the steering wheel you can set the maps as well as control gauges to show iat, boost etc. Example: on mine i have the gas gauge set to be the boost gauge when i go over 50% throttle.

Anyway I wil add you to my ignore list (feel free to add me to yours) because it seems that you have turned into a childish-immature-troll.
Or maybe that is just the BMW personality finally breaking out from within you.
Good luck! Troll!
a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as a forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion

Packed away for the winter right now... as soon as the snow is gone, salt is washed off the roads, and its generally above 50 degrees, its time to have some fun.

OMG you sound like a 5yo. Again it has nothing to do with your "new car" We dont care about your "new car" especially a little 535

I haven't trolled here once, I'm GETTING trolled by those like yourself. You seem to care a lot about my car because it pisses you off to even hear about it, to the point where me even being here with it makes you consider me a "troll".

Very nice! I used to have an 01 C4 Cab with factory sport exterior and what a wonderful car. Gonna be back in the Porsche fold again...hopefully soon.

Best of both worlds - cruise in style with the E350 year round - 'drive like I stole it' as they say with the 911.

Two Toyotas
In the past have owned Fiat 124 Spider, Nissan 300ZX and RX7 convertible as well as lots of sedans. Worst car ever was a Saab 900 Turbo.

My sigificant other is an Infiniti G Coupe (the E350 is wife/our family car). The G coupe is 180 degrees opposite of E. It has razor sharp reflexes in engine, transmission, gas pedal calibration, handling, brakes, etc. And beautiful to look at. It is short on luxury and interior space.

Hot!
Not sure rotary engines are worth the cost and effort.
Ironically on the Saab, never had problems with turbo. It was poor quality control and a lot of the parts from suppliers. Two of them are still major automotive parts suppliers, but don't ask for names.
