Also, James if you are really going to try to be a pimp at the party please get with these guys first
Who said anything about being a pimp? If anyone is being a pimp that would be you and your white sauce...
LOL

True that.

I work in the business and can tell you that MBZ V12 engine cars drop in value faster than anything. My MBZ dealers super low ball all trades on V12 engines. Make sure you steal it unless money is no object. In regards to the CL backend, I can see your point. What about a CLS55?

I think all MBZ drop value fast. Crazy since they rob you when you buy them! The most I have been offered for my car is 28k at a dealer. I would need to come up with 6k to pay it off. Hmmm...a CLS55? I haven't seen one that I know of. Will look into that one. Vic, do you work for a dealer?

Make sure you sit in the back seat (what little there is of one) of this car before you buy Angela. It is tiny and I'm only 5'2!

This is actually one of the few bottled sauces I like!!! It doesn't taste chemically, bottled and weird, just pretty good

Mix it with a little marinara and its a very edible pink sauce

Thanks for the pic - YUM!!!

Lisa,

Eric,
No one is buying me the car. I have two good paying jobs and I am buying it myself. I put myself thru college and can wipe my own a$$. You don't need a sugar momma or poppa, you just need a better job.
i thought u said u had a hot b-friend that bought you a m5. i guess i read that wrong. dam dsylexia.

[QUOTE=AMG_Eric]i thought u said u had a hot b-friend that bought you a m5. i guess i read that wrong. dam dsylexia.

I do have the hottest guy on the planet, and he did kick me down his used M5. I have my own money and bought my own house & E55. I have been robbed by all the gold diggers in the past, but this time my guy has more sugar then me. I do well as a Bank V.P. and another side job that I have. This new car is coming from all of my hard work. Huh Lisa? We know how to get it done! I would like to know how some of you youngins have 80k cars?

Sorry Vic....didn't like the CLS. What bank do you work for?

I love the queer eye pic. LMAO.

Let's just say I have a good job and another good side job ...well leave it at that. Oh it helped that I didn't spend anything when I was a kid, I saved everything...I was stingy back when I was young
