So there are happy owners!!
I wonder how many of you live up in the New England area. Perhaps a Cars & Coffee or other type of meet may be of interest to some of you. BS'ing in person about these cars could be fun...

Ok guys, I left my car parked in San Diego , I will be on a work trip for the next 2 weeks. out of town.

What can I expect when I get back? Has anyone parked there car for more than 3 weeks regularly?

I'm hoping no issues!

Need insight!

Be sure your starter battery is in good shape . You might see the electrical consumers "off line" message on starting but that should go away after driving a bit. The trunk battery always runs various "goodies".

Alright guys, flew in this morning.

The whole trip I was expecting the worse when I got back, since I've been reading on the abc system and the dreaded electrical gremlins that can occur when leaving this high maintenance car un-attended for a period of time.

Mind you I've only owned the car for maybe 1 month and a 1 week, at most.

Having driven it cross country as well, when I bought it.

Well just about a month went by with me being out of town!

To my surprise the car started right up with zero issues! I went through all the functions to get everything in order (ie; all suspension modes, convertible top , etc etc )

Very happy!

All in all, these cars, atleast in my short short experience, are just like any other Mercedes, if maintained right.

Wen out for a drive to La Jolla!
