Uh, Tavarish, just to jog your memory, you did THIS to the dash of said S500:

Am I a car whisperer that has hands made of magic?

and those engines are easy to do preventative for. You just need to understand vanos systems and hand polish and balance a crankshaft with .0001 tolerances.

You should see the factory unit. You'd be BEGGING for that Best Buy CD player.

Uh...having seen both in person..I...I have to disagree...are you feeling allright?

You get me, Pcleez. You always have.

God, the swirling is so bad in this picture.

Wait, wait, wait. Why is it on one side of Jalopnik we decry a 612hp SUV from Mercedes when on the other we're demanding that Chrysler make a Grand Cherokee Hellcat?

Me: I lease my cars, here is why.

I dont understand that statement at all. I've been driving nothing but this class of car for years. I make my payments very comfortably while putting aside money for retirement, and financing my social life.
