Hi I'm new!

First of all, you guys are all so lucky... I love Mercedes cars, especially AMGs. Some day I will own a 211 E55. But for now I work for Mercedes Benz as a technician and I drive a 2003 Mustang Mach 1. I just joined this forum to check out some pictures and see how people like driving these cars rather than working on them. I enjoy working on them but other than road tests I don't really get to DRIVE them. Anyways, my name is Charlie, nice to meet everyone!

Be sure to stick around Charlie. I'm sure your expertise will be utilized here.

Good luck on your quest for the E55!
