The two-benz garage (pic)

I will work on a more scenic backdrop (though you can _almost_ see the C6Z behind the SL65...) The two cars look really nice side-by-side in person.

The mornings are filled with difficult choices The C6Z is a terrific car; it does everything from commuting to racing and is very pleasant to drive.

You ought to post more. I have a difficult time keeping track of your collection. :p

How does the S65 and SL65 feel in terms of straight line punch? Identical?

Absolutely beautiful.

You see boys and girls why you should stay in school and get that higher education? What nice toys you can buy.

Again, stunning.

Edit: Just browsed your web site. Congrats on the MBA, 10 sec Viper, etc. Your hobby photography looks as good as some professional's work.

Is that a MaryJane plant I see outside the Garage?>..?

Joking aside, very nice collection. I forsee a new front page for mercedes carnage web site. It better involve lots of smoke!!!


All amgs are not created equal, I think someone may have to write another check to keep up with Treynor. 130k+130k+70k(all cheap estimates)=330k

I suppose, technically, I have three AMGs right now - I bought my best friend a '06 E55 last month as a birthday gift, and the title isn't signed over to him yet. But who's counting?
