Here is a picture that I took this weekend.
The beauty of the purchase was that it came from my neighbor who always "babied" the car and made sure it had the attention it deserved.
Now I have a few questions...
1) What is the best option to allow MP3 playback or Sirius in the vehicle? I was thinking about upgrading the stereo to another MB unit, but that doesn't seem very reasonable from a cost perspective. Has anyone used the inline antenna adapter that Sirius makes for their radios?

2) I have read a couple of places as well as spoken to the dealership regarding oil change intervals and from what I have gathered; it is only every 10K / year? Is that correct?
3) What else should I look for maintenance wise with the vehicle? It seems very solid and is in great shape.
Looking forward to all the fun... |
That's a very clean looking car you got there buddy  How much did you pay for it? To answer some of your questions...I've never used the factory radio..I have an aftermarket Kenwood head unit...as for the oil changes..that will vary depending upon how much you drive. Sounds familiar eh? As a rule of thump just change it every 3-5k miles if you drive it everyday...to some that might be a bit frequently but that's what I do to play it safe. Other than that, enjoy every bit of the 362 ponies, 376 lbs of torque!
