Just picked up a W220
So tired from 3 hours of haggling but i traded in my 2003 E320 base model with 64k miles for a 2003 S500 with AMG Sport package, full wood, ventilated massaging seats, etc with 56k miles.
I went there looking at a less expensive one but this was a one owner and literally looks like no one ever sat in it let alone drove it. I could not beleive the condition it literally looks like it sat in the MB showroom all this time. I had it checked out and all is well with it.
I paid my car plus $8k. Does that sound decent? I figure my car was a $14k car and this ws easily a $22k car.
Let me know what you think, i will post pics tomorrow hen i am not exhausted
Glad to be part of the club, this is in the garage with my 2005 SL500 and 1998 E320 (Wife's)

Each W220 is unique in its on way to its owner. Pictures further represent a sense of ownership of that particular car. Just like when most of us post pictures of our cars they are all different even though they are the same type.
That being said the right front tire is mounted in the wrong direction.

Hey Guys,
Sorry no pics yet, My wife and I had a baby (Our fisrt) 3 weeks ago and all last week we had family in town and things have been nuts.
I Have put 450 miles on the car in the week i have owned it and it has been awesome. So awesome i even left my SL500 home on some nice days. Today i finally took the SL out for the first time in over a week.
Both cars are awesome in their own way. I can think of worse things to have in a garage than a S500 and SL500
We are all very fortunate to experience some of these finer things in life.
Pics to come soon (Just went to post one and damn photobucket is blocked at work)
