It finally happened

So it looks like I am officially part of the S class forum.
Picked up my new to me 2010 S 550 on Friday, which just happened to be my birthday. A one owner car, had the service records. Did my pre-purchase homework all checked out. Black on black with 64,000. Also purchased a 4yr 48,000 service contract/warranty.

I like the car. It needs nothing. I'm happy.

I am too lazy to take or post pics. You seen one black s550 u have seen them all.

Shout out to Dave for helping me review the service contract. Thank you!
