The documentation for my S430, including Owner’s manual, COMAND manual, and

is over 400 pages alone.
Thank goodness I like documentation. Made for some good reading.

Well, since most of us never bought the MB new, we don't have choices
about sunroofs. Personally, I like the sunroof, especially the tilt

one with and one without sunroof, I'd still pick the sunroof. The

That’s why I chuckle when people talk about the “heat and humidity” here in
Florida.
Where I grew up in the Midwest it was not uncommon to have it be 90F and
80%-100% humidity. Goshawful weather to work outside in, and far worse than it
is here. The only difference is that we just have the

If the motor is in worse shape than the back tires, it's really bad.

I believe that's the same color as my 1997.
But mine has its hood star and all it's jack hole covers.
I guess I'm jaded, but when somebody says it's one of the nicest around and
