Big congrats on the MB, the technology on this car is incredible, you will be pampered for a while now.

Well, I hope you are right. Everyday I love the RR more. But I'm certain you did not flip the two caddy's for lack of appreciation for them. It's just fun to get in and out of new vehicles. And damn, your two new ones are smoking.

That all being that, I just closed my year end books. After paying the tax man (yep, already wrote out my estimated payments) and contributing to all the retirement funds (we started profit sharing this year) all my fun money is gone.

So essentially we start the year from zero. And I've got some work on the books for this year, but not a whole heck of a lot. So I'm in conserve mode.

If we start getting into another year like the last few, I'll be in the M right quick.

Wish me luck.

From your lips to the car gods, and the work gods ears.

I just got confirmation on a very nice project. First week of the year?!!!

Thrilled does not even begin to describe how I feel right now.

A few observations on this one as I had some time this morning behind the wheel.

- Has 'sport' mode, but I honest cannot tell difference between two LOL.
- Has more 'goodies' tech wise than just about any car I've had...stone message anyone?
- Can hear a pin drop on the inside--very quiet!
- Handles nice for a quasi land yacht.
- Fit and finish inside is simply amazing.
- Exterior views are great with no b-pillars.
- The lines of the car are very striking on the exterior (and interior for that matter).
- Going to be perfect car for trips and misc errands.

Best way to describe it is a elegant sporty coupe.

It's a car that looks good in pics, but even better in person.

- Exterior views are great with no b-pillars. My favorite! Ver'sexy!

Congrats on a beautiful automobile. I have the same in four doors, but somehow everything you get looks better. Must be that rich black color, or maybe you are just cooler!

Danny83 · 5 January 2017, 08:04 AM

Paul for a second I thought this was you

Beautiful car, enjoy it in good health.

I love that body style.

From the first photos, it looks like they gave it to you with a nearly empty gas tank?!? Either that or you took the lllllooooonnnnggggg way home!

Actually that is the percent FULL not empty. I don't like the way MB does this, just show me a damn gauge, vs a percentage full.

Very late to this thread, but better than never. Awesome car Paul, congratulations

I'm can't begin to keep up with your car flips ... I think a thread dedicated to your last 5 years of car ownership is in order
