Hi,

Well, how do you like the car? It is a beauty.

 

that car is like an animal

everytime you step on the accelerator hard...it growls!

 

How about when you step on the accelerator lightly, does it purr?

 

Just registered--bought a l994 C220 in Tucson over Christmas--my cousin got it for me for 4K--perfect instide, but 155K on engine--the owner always had it serviced. etc. at the dealer's and I have all the repair and service records--it was well-cared for, so I'm thrilled. Runs quiet and smooth. Susan

 

not much milleage. the same as 4 years of use.

 

c280 wizard,
sleepwalker is right, not much purring, just light growl to heavy growl. The car is actually a little scary on acceleration. Not to sound inexperienced, but this car actuall accelerates faster than you can think and react. This is not my first fast car, but it is the first car that is this fast. I am sure I will get used to it, but right now it is hard to give it the gas for more than a second or so without letting off.

 

Well, I'll always be here to take that scary thing off your hands. Just let me know when you're ready, eh?
