• Crossing my fingers 4 Jun 2012 (Forum)
  OK, folks...I've driven only American cars my whole life (with the exception of one really horrible European import that put me off imports for years).  However, I just took a leap of faith and bought something utterly unfamiliar: a Mercedes Benz from West Germany.  What do you folks know about these, are they any good?  This is way outside my comfort zone, but I'm willing to try and master the learning curve, which in this case might be bigger than usual.
