The Benz, ...Martin - You are very right about that. The Benz, nice as it is to drive, is not nearly as good looking as this Cadillac was. The body is OK, but the paint is pretty bad and some trim details are not perfect. I've been realizing lately that if you want a car at this price range you can have two choices. A great looking car that drives like crap, or a not-so-perfect looking car that drives well. If you want both you're going to have to at least double the price. As for the cell phone, I stupidly left it at home this day, which was my fault.<br /><br />geognerd - That is exactly what my dad said when I told him the story.

I wanted to say: stay away from nice good looking cars for little money, but then I realized that you found a decent and safe Benz.<br /><br />But couldn't you just have called the dealership and tell 'm you were not driving that car for an inch, and that they could pick it up, including you?Martin van Duijnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15171331631245624721noreply@blogger.com
