Long shot: White E63s @ Falls Church Safeway
Needle in haystack..
Spotted an E63s tonight - white with all the trim blacked out at the Safeway off 29.
Anybody here?
Car looked sick and would love to check it out and see how my old girl would fare...lol
I live right around the corner.

First thing I do upon receipt is debadge it - I use "E250" then put the sAMG and E63 in the drawer for later.
This saves many a foot chase, valet parkers mysteriously having to park it 10 miles away, hold ups at the Walmart parking lot, and general mischievousness by our adolescent generation. I'm no longer invited to race the Mustangs and Camaros either, and takes a load off my mind when parking it downtown.
I simply do NOT care to brag to anyone I've got the car - especially high-schoolers that seem to have an affinity for anything AMG. One 17yr old kid that was oohing-and-ahhhing at it one day told me that's what he drives when playing the GrandTheftAuto game. Ok. It's now an E250 (which I don't even think they made in a Wagon lol). I know what the car is and that's all that counts. When I resell it, the proper badges go back on. Haven't been bothered, but can't say same for my more cocky friend w/a 63 Wagon who has been carjacked twice. Some people put it together after listening, or observing the carbon fiber, or the new front-end etc. But by then I'm usually out of there and am not forced to prove anything, or subject of a holdup.
No, it doesn't matter where you live, believe me. It's everywhere. Besides, cops know all about these as well, and are somewhat intimidated. Some can't wait to nail you for doing 190 coming home from McDonalds. Or they SAY you were doing 190 lol. In any event, you can't outrun a radio right?
Bottom line: I bought the car for ME. For me to enjoy, play with and quietly go about my biz. I just don't give a rat's azz if a hopped up F150 can or cannot beat me to the next stoplight
