MBCA Meetup + New Car

Hi All,

On Thursday I took delivery of my new S550. Then I had a chance to attend the annual MBCA holiday party with the new car. It was a great experience and I wanted to post up some pics of the car and the meetup. This has been a very exciting week for my wife and I as we closed on our first house on monday and took delivery of my dream car the same week.

If anyone isn't a member of MBCA I would highly recommend it. Full of great people with a passion for cars especially MB. The car is simply amazing and I'm finding new things every day. For example one can hold the unlock button and it will roll down the moonroof and windows





The meetup for the Desert Stars holiday party.

Thanks for the pics Icebeam. I also have an S550 4matic and was a member of Desert Stars for a few years. My mother became ill and I had to take care of her almost full time and stopped attending. One day will get back. Again, nice car!!
