I sold my SLK32 to make room for the E55. Needed another sedan so I wasn't always driving the wife's Altima Hybrid when we needed to go somewhere with our son.

3 Evos. This is my first German made car and I'm stuck with it (can't find anything good enough to replace yet).

I replaced three cars (03 M3 Convertible, 08 Corvette Convertible, 03 540 Wagon -- VF Supercharged) with my E55 Wagon and an 04 996 Turbo X50.

The Vette and M3 were useless most of the year in Iowa. The E55 has a third row (and is more fun, in many ways, than the 540).

I miss them all. Someday I'll have them all back.
