Well, I am beginning to think that her car has become a permanent resident at the repair shop

It's been there for almost two weeks now? Maybe there's some issue with getting the shocks from Germany? I have no idea. But I'll keep you updated! (In the meantime, I'm scouring the internet for a 500sel or 600sel of my own. I'm thinking black on black with the silver trim. But I'm also looking at the 600sec's and the 600sl for my second car. Although I really like the Ferrari 308gts, so I might wind up with one of those instead. Who knows?! Haha! Just see what I find...)
