New to the forum

Just wanted to get the first post out of the way! I've been reading quite a bit of the discussions over that past couple of weeks - and the information has been very helpful. I'm not a current benz owner "yet" - but I am in the process of finding one that fits me. My past obsessions have been Corvettes. I have owned 4 including a '80 blk t-top, '87 dk red coupe, '95 blk rose cp, and a '01 Z06. I'm still crazy about the american HP, but I've always admired the german styling. My family has previouly own a 280SE, and that's probably what sparked my interest - it was always a very solid car. Anyway, I just wanted to say hey...
