benz135's Performance Delivery Pics (SGM/Black/Glacier)

Click the pic above for my photo set ..

So.. What can I say about Performance Delivery and this car.. that hasn't been said already?? Bottom line, The ultimate delivery experience for the ultimate driving machine :roundel: Anything more, would be a topic for a different forum. Well worth the extra 3 week wait over what it would have been for my local dealership delivery in the northeast..

And I always wanted to be able to say... "Broken in on the Blue Ridge Parkway"
(in hindsight, I wish I had gotten a nose mask for all those BUG GUTS).

And here is my story of the number 135:
1) So I flew from Westchester to Ohio on an Embraer 135 Regional Jet..
2) Of the two 135s that were at the Performance Center for us to drive, we got #135 (instead of 136)..
3) I got an afternoon delivery.. so I was in the car at 1:35pm..
4) I almost bought $135 worth of stuff at the gift shop (damn BMW sunscreen put me over by $2)...
5) ...And the girl who ran the register said her birthday was 13/5 (May 13)
6) At 1:35am, OBC reports 136 miles to empty.. (close!)
7) At Tony Luke's Cheesesteaks in Philly, it is EXACTLY 135 miles to my house (according to TomTom).

Cheers! :headbang:
