Was the E55 built for speed or status?

E55
If were going Poser Disposer on his a$$ we should ask for pics with a piece of paper with the date and his screenname on it in the windshield. And he should have to take the pics while there is a glare on his windshield.
Its a test in photography as well as one in character.

Qat, Change your tampon. My SMG ran like a champ and would have smoked your alegedly non functioning E55. We know you are frustrated with your car so get it fixed, be done with it and report back. I am sure others would like to know the cause of this.

And you are absolutely correct that your SMG Z4 non-M would smoke my E55- I would not doubt that at all.
Your absolutely right again that I am frustrated with my car but I'm not WHINING anymore (and I don't think I was from the start)- but people shouldn't get mad just because they don't understand another person's opinion- but society wouldn't be what it is if it wasn't for the narrowminded

I have a better idea- send me your picture and your name- social security number, atm acct. number and pin is optional and I will cut and paste it to a Ferrari Enzo so you can send your E buddies a picture of yourself in an Enzo.
I don't need to prove to anyone that I own a $20K E55 (thats what the dealer wants it for tradein)- don't wet your pants thinking that you drive an exclusive car because what matters most is its current value and not what the car was worth new with all the add ons and mark ups and finance charges etc.
You can question if I own an E63 cuz min price of entry is at least $60K, but please, it might be harder to believe that I own a $34k 2008 S2000 than it would a $20k E55.
Get over yourself, an E55 does not cost that much anymore.

Also, my last 10 posts had nothing to do with my original question cuz thread hijacking terrorists like you want to change the subject and question people to test your interrogation skills.
If you work for MB and don't like my original complaint let me know but don't try to discredit me by saying I don't own an E55- no matter how much you love your car, its not a rare car thats untouchable like you would like to believe (and only you have it).
Don't get mad, get Glad. And face it, many E55s are worth less than a fully loaded Odyssey or C class so get off your high horse and stop thinking you are so special driving around a car that used to be worth $90K- think present value.

For what? I don't understand your reasoning? What does that prove? You keep on begging the question- 3 of your emails have been about the same thing- 'let me see a picture' Google it- Do you know how to do that? I can show you.

Most owners of these cars take pride in them. Also, owners of these cars do not let dealerships roll over them the way you do also bringing into question your authenticity. It is a state of mind that true owners of these vehicles have...that you seem to lack.
You are either the exception to the rule, or a poser who is trolling and trying to make said brands of vehicles look bad.
A picture of your vehicle with your username would at least start to validate you are the exception to the rule.

The monetary amount is not in question. The fact that you whine like a troll who is against cars like MB and BMW is.

I do take a lot of pride in my vehicle but that does not mean that there is no issues with it. Mercedes around here is almost like a Honda- don't think a Mercedes owner is a special breed- its not a Lambo or Ferrari.
What do you expect me to do with the dealer? Whine? Its a drivability issue with no codes. They are clueless but they might figure it out sooner or later.

Do you respect the dealers opinions when it comes to auto repair? And not think you know it all and expect the dealer to get it right all the time and nothing less? No
I failed- I don't deserve to be an MB owner. Is that the way your brain reasons if I am an MB owner or not?
Good thing you are not in marketing.

Sorry, but I don't fit into the 'break the doors down' 'scream if they don't listen' attitude you might have towards the dealer. They deal with enough BS from people with your mentality that I don't need to make their jobs tougher than it is.

I'm only a jerk to those that that ask for it.
I used to love it when I was in sales- screw the jerks and give a little extra to the nice ones
I don't believe in Karma- I believe in reciprocation- bad attitudes will attract bad attitudes

HMS
HMS has zero to do with Harbor Sound. Get your facts straight. My family bought Harbor Motorsports from its original "shady" owner 5 years ago. He is no where in the picture now. We closed Harbor Motorsports 3 months ago, and I opened HMS in Westminster, a completely different company and location. Hyevon Motors (Serge) is renting space out of HMS where he does nothing but Performance mods for AMGs and Ms, as well as regular maintenance, and occasionally diagnose these kinds of problems. Take it to Serge, he will find the problem, and get you on your merry way.

Yes, I am aware of the situation- I never said you two were affiliated but Harbor Sound did once own and opened Harbor MotorSports in the days when wheels were hot thinking they can compete against HW Motorsports. I am pretty familiar with the landscape down Harbor. And as far as I know, Harbor Sound has been sold also- Tony and Ross are no longer there.

I probably forgot more about Harbor Sound than you know about them.

Sorry I hurt your feelings about my complaints about MB but you should jump on the bandwagon before it leaves.
You don't know me so stop assuming what I have and what I don't have.
Besides, if I had the MB you had, I would be lying that I don't own an MB- thats what I call old school baby. Around from where I am at, they put all those cars in the wreckage yard or somehow made them disappear.
