I bought for myself a "perfect" S320 from a dealer in South Florida. PPI with their dealer tech and me on the phone with him looking at it showed no leaks or issues other than a cracked front bumper and missing tow hook cover. Showed up with a bad transmission, bad head gasket, Oil level sender leak, and various electrical things to sort out.

I got a few small things and a couple of hilarious and sweet cards from people I love. Nothing of any monetary significance, which is exactly how I like it.

Over in the material world, though, my NY resolution is to buy a new stereo for my car. I'm tired of cassette wires and I no longer care that I'll lose my steering wheel controls. Been Crutchfielding a little each day lately.

Dude!! you might want to consider wearing those waders when reading some of the claims posters here make about what they have and have done in their lives.

Nice!

Myself I got a $100 visa gift card and promptly spent it on misc maintenance items for the SD, So I got car parts for Christmas... By the way, my co-workers still make fun of me for asking for a set of spark plug wires for Christmas when I had the 420. I'd buy em myself, but damn theyre expensive!

1980 Moto Guzzi V50. It looks nice but needs some work in the igniton, which is largely missing. Weighs about 340 lbs, 48hp, so it should be lively.
