Nice. Unless I'm mistaken, I think I saw your car at the season-end Exotics at RTC a couple weeks ago.

Yes you did, that lovely '29 Cadillac was parked behind me. That is a pretty cool meet there. I'll probably go to another one of those whenever they start them up again next spring.

My new (to me) SLK55 with the P030 option (larger brakes, Nurburgring suspension, modular wheels, carbon interior trim, and removed top speed limiter) arrives this week!

Now I just need the rain to stop so I can finally do some top-down driving again.

Absolutely. I'm over on the Eastside (Bellevue/Kirkland), so I've had Adam Takayoshi at Mercedes Garage handle all my services and repairs since I bought my CLK55 in 2011. Adam has a five-star Yelp rating, 4.7+ (out of five) Google rating, and was highly recommended by a number of people in the Seattle MBCA chapter.

I've seen and heard good things about Mercedes Centrum (on Bel-Red Road) as well, but can't speak from personal experience.

Nice, congratulations! The SL55 is an amazing car; I deliberated between the SL55 and SLK55 for a long time before making my decision.

2007 W211 Bluetec / 1987 AMC Jeep MJ
For funsies I'll add the entire fleet at the house here in beautiful Central Oregon:

07 W211 Bluetec
03 Cavalier sedan (daughter's car)
02 Escape 4x4 No Boundaries (wife's rig)
87 AMC Jeep Comanche

The Jeep surprisingly has been the most reliable and has had the least number of things break on it; also the cheapest to repair when something does go wrong. It has never left me stranded or required a tow.

2003 C230 kompressor
Have my 30 C230 Kompressor Sport. Love the car, if you're looking for a great shop on the eastside but not too picky about European only, go to Stage Auto Center in Kirkland, they have worked on all my cars and I don't normally trust people with my cars. Labor is not as expensive as other places due to low overhead, but do top notch quality work
