Damn, looks nice.
Full leather seats, too.
Why does yours have one less button above the climate control than my '99?

Man, you scored!

I think it doesn't have the anti-tow button. Maybe that was an add-on for 99?

Could be. Possibly a different alarm system?
Also, I noticed the '99 has a wood shifter surround, rather than plastic..

It looks really really beautiful to me. They are really really roomy inside, and the black looks elegant. You will really love driving it for sure. Bargain price on it too.

Makes it hard to think that so many of the German, Danish and Swedish ones were just taxis, painted in non metallic pastel colors.

Great price. I was able to purchase a 1999 White leather all the toys with 118,000 miles for 16,000 in Feb 07. The car is in MINT condition inside and out. Had it serviced at the MB dealer in Tampa. Met the mechanic before and after the service and he went over it with a fine tooth comb and couldn't believe its condition. He even had the other mechanics take a look at it. Had the ps fluid flushed and changed as well as the brake fluid done, transmission fluid and filters replaced, motor mounts and transmission mounts replaced and the flex disk on the rear axle replaced, and the carbon cabin filter replaced. Total cost approx 1700.00. The car runs like a bat out of hell, not that I drive it like that very often but it is nice to know that it can keep up with the best of them.

Average about 30 - 31 mpg.

Enjoy you new car.

Any suggestions for a transport company? I have bids from 865 to 1200, for an LA to Norfolk trip.
