Quite the upgrade. 53 AMG, that's the I6 one, pretty cool. Congrats

Wow. Maybe I'm thinking of someone else, but I thought you were one of the early adopters that loved the 500. Why did you trade?

Awesome ride, congrats. Too bad Lexus does not and probably never going to have anything to compete.

Nice! Did you consider Panamera at all or the CLS? Curious what one cross shops with the GT Sedan.
