ADIOS SL500!!
Finally got rid of IMO the nicest worst car ever!
Lost about 20k in 12 mo. Waisted so much of my time and energy dealing with drop off/pick up of car at dealer. Finally done and can move on.
Have a great summer guys! I'll be top down in my jeep swimming in our pool at our new house!!
I'll post a classified thread for remaining stuff I have for grabs. Not much. Everything went in 12 hrs.

Sorry to hear that... Thats the very reason why I ONLY lease my cars... The repair bills alone will make you want to kick yourself in the pants. At least on the higher end of Mercedes line. They experiment with all the new and expensive technology and when they perfect it they put it in the C class and e class...

Wouldn't have been so bad if service could fix the problem instead of blaming a million other things that aren't the issue and troubleshooting for several appointments per issue.

Its luck of the draw I guess. My 03 has been troublefree (touch wood), except for routine maintenence, and is now approaching 90,000 kilometers.
