Distinctive Collection

[flipstah]

Thanks, peeps! Once Service A comes up, I'll go to Distinctive to keep you posted on service performance.

If it's not to my liking, there are options (i.e. Alpine Autowerks).

The stand up ornaments are all gone, except for the S Class.

[TYMSMNY]

Rolls Royce for stand up hood ornaments.

These W212s were basically the mainstay for the majority of taxi cabs and Uber in Holland and Belgium that we took visiting last year, all diesels. Amazing ride, from the back

Congrats on the 'winter beater'!

[flipstah]

Thanks! I'm liking it so far.

It's exactly like a Crown Vic.

You are aware of how I feel. I hope you have the most reliable war sled ever built. Legit.

^ Deep down inside, I wish you were Scarlett Johansson or Genie Bouchard and had a major crush on me.

Damn you, internet.

[R154]

I wish I cared about my life choices as much as I care about yours. When you got laid off my heart hurt haha.

This is getting weird.

I had a one hour conversation with my brother about your car choice. He has had your car. He assured me it will be fine.

If you get the new E300 with the luxury package with the 'exclusive exterior' you can still get the hood ornament. You'll just have to forgo any AMG bits. I also think they had the hood ornament and blank grille on the C300 but they axed it for 2017 I believe...

Sir the 126 always wins,



Still to this day, the vehicle retains its elegance.

Hell, first scene of Miami Vice had what...a W126. The whole show highlighted it (including the Mercedes SEL 1000).

I need another garage and a lift to add a w126 to the collection but man I will.

Bottom line

ALL AGREE OLD MERCEDES ARE COOL.

[rage2]

Im quite fond of the w126. My parents brought a SEL560 home when I was 12? We owned that thing till last year. It was running on 7 cylinders for the last decade. What a tank. Too bad my brother ruined it.

Well, that time in my life definitely sucked and it's a cyclical thing. Just gotta figure out how to ride the wave.

It's the same as university; ride the bell curve and you're gold.



Best Merc.

I am still in love with this generation S-class, but for me it is all about the big body coupe, C126 all the way.
