About the 911 scare tactic... I *like* it! Have to keep that in mind when it comes time for my 500E sales pitch to SWMBO...

I even brought home a brochure, took the kids to try out the seats, took her there, etc.... For it this tactic to reallly work, you have to work it.

before I bought my 500E I took my wife to the HBL Porsche in VA. and showed her the Boxster. Trying the same strategy. It backfired on me. She could care less about the 500E (that's my car). She wants the 911 PORSCHE !!!!!! and is tryin' ta convince me to buy one GOOD LUCK

Anther 500e500 acquisition Tactic:
Point out a 1994 W140 s500 ..tell her you're looking for something like that.... When she actually lays eyes on a handsome W124 E500 she'll give you the green light with a sigh of relief! -fad |

I'm probably the test case for 500E frigid air. I live in the part of Arizona that has 100+ consecutive days over 100 degrees. More than thirty of those days are over 110 degrees. I'm am fanatic about having cold air in my car (a 92 500E). I must say that I'm delighted with the temp of the air coming out of my a/c. I do not have specially tinted windows on my 500E (I do on my 560SEL). I have the special MB window shade for my front windshield that protects the dashboard and I use the built-in automatic rear window shade all the time during the hottest part of the year. That's it. Total satisfaction with the 500E environment in the hottest weather. Oh yeah, one more thing....I make sure I service the a/c annually with fresh chemicals, etc.
Of more concern is the accident you found on the Carfax report. I'd make sure that got checked out and certain things were inspected by a qualified mechanic.
