My Merc is getting delivered tonight!!!

[F8LBITEva]

So after searching for a nice Marauder I finally found one that I liked. Although black was my first choice, I found a SB with 30k miles and cherry inside an out. The only problem was, it was in Houston TX and im in Northern VA just outside of DC. I got an outrageous price to ship it, cheaper than flying one way and driving it back (23hours). I know it would have been fun but I didnt want to risk anything happening on the way back. Im just waiting for the transporter to show up with it!!!!!!
:banana::banana::banana:


OK the car came off the transporter without a scratch, but it was absolutely filthy. Now this may be a bad sign but not half an hour after I got it, I GOT PULLED OVER!!!!!!! Not a big deal though, they sent me a paper tag and I had it in the back window and the cop said he couldnt see it through the tint. He gave me a warning and I was one my way.

I took it for a little cruise and it feels so nice. I already love this car!!

Congrats on getting your Silver Birch MM. :congrats:

Where are you located in Northern Virginia?

I hope you know the guy who is parked in space #64. That garage is awfully tight. Hope you can avoid getting door dinged by that Honda. :( Maybe you can give him those plastic chrome edge strips when you take them off your car. ;)
