Well, are we talking about super clean AMG cars? Or trashed out E320s and S500s that people bought because they were cheap and ran into the ground? Because I see plenty of the latter. My father in law has two...
The only thing I can figure is it shares enough collision parts with the run of the mill SLs that they're cheap(ish) to fix. They built nearly 170,000 R230 generation SLs.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Curious. I know there is still several things you can't do on the Audi and Mazda, no?
Whenever you use forceful and overt verbal persuasion to try to convince others to see things your way, they're probably not listening to what you say, Instead they're looking for every error in you your logic and mistakes in your facts, all the while constructing counterarguments. Worse still, they don't merely believe you're wrong; they need you to be wrong in order to protect the status quo. And since the final judge exists in their own head, you lose every time. - The Influencer
Is the level of bullshit you have to go through to change things in a direction you want, less than than or equal than the level of current bullshit?
I can't program keys or remove component protection on certain modules. Only dealers with connections back to the VW mothership can do that. Mercedes has the same problem. Lots of newer cars are doing this though. The Germans just started earlier.
I can theoretically do keys for the Mazda. I just need to see if the tool and pin code generator work.

It's about as close to an SLR as I'm ever likely to get.

[quote=""alienviking""]I don't. I really do not like to drive other people's cars.. scares me that I will damage it. So I'll happily settle for a ride.[/quote]
That's kinda always been my feeling too. There have been times people insisted and I ended up driving, but I'd have been just as happy in the passenger seat.
One of the most fun rides I ever had was in the passenger seat of a intake/exhaust 03 Cobra. He had me pegged into the leather of the passenger seat. I never would have beat on it the way the owner did, so it was definitely more enjoyable as a passenger.
I don't think the Benz is going to happen. But I'd certainly be up for dinner and/or drinks while you're in town

I'm in town for work training with the rest of my team, so I'm guessing that dinners would likely be with them. If you'd be interested in dropping by the hotel bar for some drinks, I'll pick up the tab! I'll be in town Monday and Tuesday night. Shoot me a text either day if you are interested - 612-227-9750.
