Getting rid of the Mercedes
My wife and I have finally decided it is time to get rid of the Benzes. With the price of gas and other unforseen cost of living increases, it's time to move on. Found a really nice VW bug for her with the little vase for the flower, and a pristine Yugo for myself. Gas savings alone might allow us to retire a year early. It's been fun though.

What color is the yugo? What options does it have?
 Let's see - Borbet wheels, lowering springs, remus exhaust, tinted windows, twin-turbo chargers on that Yugo...

I had all of my MBs converted to hybrids...the SL hardtop now has a mylar-silicate solar panel instead of a panoramic roof!

Aw, I was really hoping he bought the Yugo, and took my suggestions on AMG'ing it.
