Its funny too cause I was trying to sell it for an 05 C230. Instead I got a really cheap 2000 camry, acquired a second kid and havent looked back. Since you can turn off the passenger air bags in the xfire my kids can ride in it. They LOVE dad's car. I will never sell this thing unless I total it, in which case I will just buy another. Good luck on whatever you do, and you would be surprised how cheap the amg's are. I might be trading in the camry for a E55 amg next year. Those are going for $20K in a pretty good condition. The v6 mercedes' are pretty dang cheap in comparison.
Thank you , that's good to hear though I haven't abandoned the idea of the merc but right now but I'm venturing into other areas b6 a4 2.0t or Mazda rx8's but honestly the way things are looking I really don't wanna loose my car right now , took to long to find a good one plus compared to other cars I'm looking at the xf by far is more reliable and even with or better on the fuel Eco the only real positive is the aspect of having something boosted (which i do miss) or having something with a lot of variety for mods
But the misses and i still have about 8 months to make any decisions
