I heard snakes are some good eatin down there too.

Here's a typical dinner conversation down in Gainsville:

"Mmmm....that snake looks delicious. What part am I about to eat?"

"Basically, a snake don't have parts. But if I had to call it anything, I would say it's his knee."

"Great....his knee. And what are we having for desert?"

"Squirrel."

"Excellent!"

Around here, the definition of a "virgin" is "any girl who can outrun her older brother."

A 2017 E450 AMG will probably list in the 70k range if it even exists. I do like that interior, the iPad-on-dash C Class design is fixed in the new E. The E63 version is over 100k.

How about a wagon to replace the S?

The unicorn E55 wagons are sort of collectible and sell for a premium. So these might become semi-collectible as well.
Just realized.. This is a a used car dealer...
Another correction..
Actually this is a new car dealer.. Porsche of Santa Barbara..

I know you guys were talking about the E class....I didn't realize the 2012+ E550's are as fast as they are and they are pretty cheap too. I didn't know they were bi-turbo either.

They are quick because they are quite a bit lighter than the S550. They are cheap because they are built cheaply....with lots of plastic, thinner sheet metal, and a very aged and ugly design inside and out. To me, the current generation is the basterd child of MB. The 2017 looks to finally legitimize the car again.
