Mercedes SLK280 for Christmas

[admin]

Apparently, I was a good boy this year as Santa brought me a Mercedes Benz SLK280, two-seater, convertible.

SLK stands for Sexy Little Kar and the best feature is the chick magnet, which then gets you the best car accessories - chicks.

OK, be honest Kevin. How big a bribe did it take to get Santa to leave you that underneath the tree? Did you leave him caviar instead of cookies? Single Malt Scotch instead of milk? :wink:

Nice ride.

Kevin just left tobacco under the tree. A couple pounds of Penzance I think is what it takes.

Not going to play one-up-manship with you Kevin :crying:

Nice ride! Sure beats the heck out of my '01 Ford Escort!

 

[dhizzy]

Man! That's almost as nice as my 1995 Olds 88 Royale. You'll get there Kevin, just hang with it.

Not a bad present from Santa. I love Mercedes. Smoothest ride of any car I've ever been in. Enjoy.

Nice ride ! So what's the secret in gettin that ? Although I can't be jealous... I love my pipes I got ;-)

Congrats on the ride, go get those accessories

It's nice but since it only has 2 seats, it'd be very silly for me. Unless my kids rode in the trunk.
Congrats, Kevin!

Now that is a proper car for a guy in Florida, great choice and enjoy!

Kevin:
Congrats ... You will love the car. Two suggestions, add a plexiglass windscreen instead of the netting and add a vario top which will allow you to open/close the top remotely and open/close it while moving less than 10 mph.
Make sure you join http://www.slkworld.com, great group for SLK owners.
(I own an obsidian SLK 55, so I know you will enjoy your.)

Not quite as nice as my 1984 Toyota Tercel, but it'll do. :nana:

Hey Philip, you have any problems with the accelerator in that thing? :wink:

Broward County plates...dude, you are my neighbor!

@billinsfl (number6 PM'd me on this too)

Broward County plates...dude, you are my neighbor!

I actually live in Pinellas County in St. Petersburg. I've been here for three years and they still haven't changed the plate on me. The funny thing is that years ago I bought a car in Hernando county while visiting my dad. I was living in Broward at the time, and had a Hernando County plate for about 6 years, across two cars. When they finally sent me a Broward plate in December 2008, three months later I moved to St. Petersburg in March 2009.
It's ironic that I have had a Broward plate in Pinellas for longer than I had it in Broward.

Kevin,

Beautiful car! I love the Germans and roadsters. That car is not only a chick magnet but a ticket magnet too!

That car just screams 'ROAD TRIP"'
