To me the price justifies the performance, and if you saw the car in person, you would be stunned at how good it looks. This used Mercedes at 40k miles now looks just as good as my Camaro I bought new and have babied to 20k miles.

To me its about what I'm paying in performance per dollar. This car costs twice as much new, and its twice the performance. Still is.

And if you felt these brakes, you would complain about the Camaros lol.

I did get an extended warranty. Had a few minor issues that were quickly touched up.

Interesting info on the headbolts. Had not seen that on the Mercedes forums. I will keep an eye out. I already did add a little more coolant recently in my routine checks, now I will play closer attention.
