Merc

Love the E Series Merc posted earlier. E63 is on the LIST. So is a nice used 996 TT.

Current Stable:
66 Ford Mustang (100% Untouched)
07 Merc ML 500
06 Merc C 230

@ 12mpg and $4/gal it's hard to consider an AMG :)

My mount is 2006 BMW 130i, fully loaded, leather xenons etc rolling on 18 in wheels. A perfect match for my 2006 Sub Date.

I think my white face SS EXP II goes well with my stable of toys:
'01 MB SLK320 - Summer vacation toy
'02 Ford Tauras - Daily all weather driver and surf ski transporter
'00 MB E430 Sport - Looking for a lake car and couldn't pass this one up, well bought at $19K
'78 Cessna 152 two seat trainer - Cross country flying machine

I suppose one of these days I should start saving for retirement. Yeah, like maybe when I grow up!!!

My ride is an S197 Mustang GT coupe.

It's a perfect match for my DJ.

Both run rather fast.

I don't believe they made a CVO SE Fat Boy in 03, I know they made one in 05. That picture is just of a standard 03 100th Anniv Fat Boy, dosen't even have the special paint job..... Also see a lot of chrome covers on it, like the one on the front caliper......

I guess we can add another Vette owner to the list.



I think it matches my SS sub pretty well. And it's just your average 500hp C5. Heads, Cam, Ported LS6 manifold, TB, Intake, Longtube headers, Xpipe, Exhaust. Plus some cosmetics.





Just installed new wheels after having them sitting in the garage for almost a year. Not a bad looking car for 10 years old, good thing is it only has 40K miles. I have put 2K miles on it in the last 2 years, it is my car show/garage queen car. Also have a Black 06 300c SRT8 that I use as a daily driver.

Love the Convertibles

Love the Verts - the Alfa's away doing the shopping - but my LV goes well with the Jet Black Saab. I aspire to a Maserati - As in the second picture I'm starting with a flag and working my way up.

I think the sub goes well with our SUV's but the Daytona is reserved for the supercharged C5 Vette...

YES!!! Hong Kong MTR. For all you tree huggers that's Mass Transit Railway. Probably the only real sub out of the 400 seen on any given MTR train! So find the real one and the arm attached to it is me!

Actually, it looks like a 599 GTB (front), a Cayman (middle) and an Enzo (rear).

Since there were no Mercedes 5 litre engines in the 60s, why not a nice 300SL from the 50s? I agree with you about the earlier Mercs.
