Hi all!

Excited to get started on my first Mercedes. It is a C250 Coupe Sport. So far I love everything about it. The ride, handling, look, and presence are impressive. I work for a tuning shop called MADNESS Autoworks that is known more for Alfa Roemeo and FIAT makes but I am looking forward to learning about this great car. I have a lot of experience with 4-cylinder turbos so I look forward to messing around with this great platform.

Here is how I got here:

1984 Prelude was my first car and blew up about a year after I got her. 200K+ miles


Sister was nice enough to give me her Saturn SC. Reverse decided it didn't want to work anymore and that was a very fun experience.


Finally bought my first new car. 2002 Civic SI and except for the Mugen Rims I pretty much had my car looking like this. Loved it but so under powered =(


So I stepped up. 2001 Subaru RS and this is my actual car. Carbon everywhere and I had to let it go when the shop I trusted to do my EJ20T swap ruined my harness and the car never ran again. Miss her a lot...=*(


So I went luxury. It was great but I really wasn't feeling it after I got the bill for a 100K service 8^O


Traded her in for a Don't-Give-a-F#&K Ridgeline. It was a great truck like a CR-V is a great SUV. It went away very fast.


For a more fun car. (not mine but very similar)


Until someone tried to use me for insurance fraud.


I didn't die so I bought a MINI. I have always wanted a black/black MINI Cooper S and it was freaking awesome!


Until someone ran a red light and caved my strut tower in RIP sweet princess.


Which leads me to my 2014 C250 Coupe Sport

Happy to be part of the community and ready to learn everything I can. Feel free to post links to FAQs and DIYs as that is where I usually start to avoid the dreaded "Use the search function noob!"

Cheers!
