Thanks. Unfortunately I had to pay premium ...more

But it wasn't too bad, since I didn't have to pay gas guzzler and luxury tax. Plus it only had 431 miles on it and never been titled. It turned out only couple of thousand over everything.

I still have the 04 CLK500 Cabriolet on order. I am still no. 1 on their waiting list, since I placed the order in April of 2001. I will wait and see what happens. My wife still wants 4 seater convertible.

I should be able to sell the CLK Cab for a premium if I don't want it. I was told they are going to make very limited amount of CLK Cabs.

I must say, that is quite sweet. You couldn't find an SL 55? Not interested in one? Not to say your SL500 is bad, but just curious...

Your G is smiling next to that beauty.

Just make sure you don't let the G and SL get too close... I heard that that's how the M class was born...

You live in VA correct? How are you loving the beloved 4.5% car tax?

I am so glad I moved to Florida.. Paying 4.5% tax on a vehicle I own outright, every year, only adds insult to injury!

$4,500 per year for a $100,000 vehicle. EVEN if you paid cash!!
