1994 E500 Columbus Ohio owner with us???
 
Hey guys, I went to Columbus Ohio to OSU for a huge annual greek dance. When we were driving around, in a parking lot in the middle of the city I noticed a W124 from afar, as we got closer I noticed the 16" 8-hole wheels, as we got closer i saw the lower fog lights and I knew it had to be a E500. When we got closer saw the fender flares and as we passed i looked back and saw it badged an E500. It was black/grey? It was pretty covered with snow so I couldn't tell that good. Was wondering if the owner of the car surfs here :P If so, nice car :)

I have never seen a 500E or E500.. but have seen a few 400E's. Where exactly did you see that E500?

It was not parked outside this morning when we left the hotel. It was near the Hyiatt Regional (i think, not the hyiatt square one). It was a block or two away in a parking lot, not a parking garage. It was parked on the very edge in the last parking space. I'm 100% sure it was an E500. Maybe it was an out of towner staying for the weekend? Since it was close by the hotel it could have very well been a non-native.

That's tight though, a fellow 300SEL owner :) And heres some pictures of the snow leaving columbus :(

Your pictures show 2-3 months of typical Edmonton and area driving conditions.

I haven't seen snow like that in years! Last time was in Winter of '95 in France, freaking freeways were shut down, too much snow! I remember people left at 2pm to go home, and they couldnt drive, too much snow, had to spend the night in their cars up until 9am the next morning or something. Wicked!

Dude.. when I lived in California, I never seen snow in person. Today is the most snow I have ever seen. My car is stuck.. it won't come out of the driveway. Its sitting right now in the garage waiting for a clear passage out to the street.:( Hopefully, Ohio State will cancel classes cuz of all that snow. My street is a mess... :rolleyes:
