Because it's fun to laugh at some people. Why post any threads? It's funny to me that he would actually call it an S55 conversion .. the thread's not stupid, it may not be funny to you but it's not stupid!

Good luck in your search for more relevant, serious posts .. I'm just here to laugh at the S430/S55 with $140k miles that he books at $25k!

Well I should have said it was a stupid Ad... I don't see the point in sending him any more hits than he already over deserves..
