First Merc
Hi Everyone,

I've just got my first Merc, its a 2004 CLK500 Cabriolet.
I just moved to California hence the need for a Cabriolet, and I'm looking forward to getting into all things Merc...

Welcome to MBWorld. Grats on the pickup and welcome to Cali! Definitely the right vehicle for the lifestyle. Looks like Huntington Beach?

Let us know if we can help you give her a bit of an update with newer whiter LED/HID lighting! Makes for a nice modern facelift.
