Hi Jimmy,
Now that I can respond properly, yes I bought the Batmobile, too. Originally purchased for my son, but I have been driving it lately as my son is living in the dorm this year and really can't practically have a car on campus. It will be his again in the spring. By the way, my indie went through the Batmobile (he is a 71 year old German that is very respected in these parts - it is uncanny what he knows about these cars). He was as thrilled with the car as I am, couldn't believe how strong it runs. We only updated a few routine items(new rear shocks, alignment, etc.) and she runs strong. Great car - a real keeper for me. Thanks for all the work you and Tyler put into her

It's the only Mercedes I miss John, and yes, it sure was a nice example. It is just a shame I had to include that car in order to get something newer, but you gotta "give to get".
And that interior is just ridiculous!! The headliner was really the only issue, and it was a ways from becoming too noticeable.
There is one just like it near me that I see on the roads. Same color. It always seems to have the windows down, so I'm guessing AC might be inop. Evap???
Yall enjoy that thing!!

Back to your regularly scheduled For Sale ad. Good buy.......
