This dealer currently has 2 ATS in stock, one CTS, 2 Lacrosses, and one Regal. I have seen them all. Don't care for the Caddys they have in inventory, like one of the 2 Lacrosses (though I don't think I want a Lacrosse) and like the 2015 Regal they have a lot.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers for my son, Justin. Every little bit helps, believe me.

Yeah but you'll never know the thrill of getting an old car fixed on the cheap.

Because they're STOOPID! Any business that would blow off $17k for $15k doesn't deserve to be in business.

Driver - all I need is someone to spot me the first car...
Actually I've got a friend who essentially leases to himself. It's always an Outback which makes sense. Holds value. He bought the first one and takes impeccable care of it and at three years traded it in for a new one. Always puts a little aside each month and takes a tiny three year loan.
I'm toying with that approach. I've got a car fund pretty well established. In three more months I have no car payments so can grow the account. Right now the thought is trying that when my wife's Camry goes and if there's not enough when the Mazda gives up I'll try the same approach of a fun used car and keep building the fund.
I love the White Outback! Looks great normally & sparkling in the sun too;)

Temp has only been around 58F these days, bhut that's OK.
We should be on the way in 4 weeks. Oh, and the new E400 has to come in by then too.

The "diamond" sparkle whites are nice. The only one I don't like is the "gold flash" that was used by Buick on some leSabres. It gives a golden tone with varied directions of light scatter. I prefer the crisp white sparkle.

I was told today that my E400 will remain at the port until they launch the 2015 E Class in 1-2 weeks. So it will be a while for me down here in Florida.

The Ohio Dept of Transp has hurried and opened the smooth southbound lanes for the Florida migration. We have opened up the new lanes of I-75 through Dayton after 3-4 years of repairs and moving the roadbed. You will be on the new 6 lanes or whatever that will end up being the southbound side. Part of it is being shared with the northbound giving them 2 lanes. But southbound you'll have 3 smooth lanes that will be the new I-75 through Dayton--at least until the next reconstruction starts. Probably 2 years after they finish this one.
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
It will be interesting to see if you like the E enough to actually take it. I can see reasons why you might - and reasons why you may not. That will be a hard choice...I think we should place bets.

But the northbound is now on the new pavement and route, but is choked into the two lanes and concrete barriers temporarily put in place. It was on the old berm and broken concrete areas for the last 3 years.
Amazing, the day they opened the new straight in approach and the three lanes southbound, they had 3 accidents from people who couldn't handle it. The old south 3 lanes wiggled and were narrowed by concrete barriers and bad pavement with temporary patches to swing over to share the old northbound side. Go figure about the accidents.

Hang in there, Mike. Prayers are with you and your family.
I think, if he can get his mind around that, he'll actually like the higher doors for ease of entry/exit, more room inside, larger windows, higher seats. But, the 550 stands out, and really looks special.
2017 MB E400 , 2015 MB GLK350, 2014 MB C250
Before we got to him, he veared off and drove straight into the cement median. I swerved around him and called the police..... I called 911 and they sure took their time answering. They said they would check, but, didn't seem too concerned, said they had a few calls about that car.
Now, if they could build a big wide bridge to get you through Cincinnati, that would help. What a bottleneck that is.
I was looking for a picture but found an article that says the bridge would cost $750M to fix, but there are other huge problems.....like it would take 15 years, moving landmarks and getting around historical stuff. Maybe a by-pass would be better?
Part of an Article:
Engineers and public officials all say a new bridge is desperately needed to carry Interstates 75 and 71 over the Ohio River. An Enquirer report on Sunday found that the Brent Spence ranks No. 7 for highest accident rate among 15 major U.S. bridges labeled "functionally obsolete." Drivers are five times more likely to have an accident on the bridge than on the interstate systems in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana.

I agree with you driver. I have no problem going from a CLS to an E400 in terms of "stepping down" a notch in prestige or styling. What matters most to me are:
Visibility
Comfort
Handling
Power
When the new E400 arrives at the dealership, I will drive it first to make sure all of the above variables are acceptable. If so, I will definitely buy the car. Remember, I have already owned a 2014 E350 in April, 2013, when the new body style first arrived. It's the new engine I am concerned about and the ease of getting in and out of the car.
I'll Know for sure by the end of the month.

That is distinct from the driving conditions that have evolved on the Brent Spence Bridge and which too often, at predictable points of every day, make driving unsafe.
Reduced-width lanes to accommodate more traffic is an unsafe condition.
Absence of emergency shoulders is an unsafe condition.
A traffic load nearly double the designed capacity, when combined with narrowed lanes and no shoulders, is an unsafe condition.
I am trying to remember, does that bridge have one of those wire mesh surfaces that get slippery, and your car kind of slides sideways as you drive across?
2017 MB E400 , 2015 MB GLK350, 2014 MB C250
Mike, it's going to be interesting to see what you decide on? For me, I will be going from 300 hp to 330.
I will be sacrificing a bit of handling and possibly performance...I don't think the E400 has as many settings for Sport and Super Sport. The Sport makes a difference in the E but not as much. My wife really likes the seating in the E, even as a passenger (since no one else gets to drive it...well, she can if she really has to). Seats are more comfortable, but also go much higher and so vision is better, especially to the front. Ride is smoother and quieter in the E.
But, that article I read said 1/3 of new car purchasers get didssatisfied with their new cars....so, I am hoping I like the E better....but, there is a bit of an unknown to all of this.

The Tesla Model S with dual motor all wheel drive P85D Autopilot test flight. Impressive neck-snapping acceleration, hands-free driving and hands free parking coming later this year or early next year.
Enjoy!

"Mike, be a little more positive and upbeat. While it is true that your son is in agonizing pain, do not give up hope as modern medicine and treatments work miracles. I have every confidence in the new protocol and it won't be long before your son is restored to good health. We all are praying for you. Cheers!"
Thanks for your encouraging words, bwia. It's very hard to be upbeat under these circumstances, but I appreciate your optimism. The toughest aspect of this situation is that I feel helpless. I decided not to go out there as I will only provide him with an additional stress - worrying about me and my well-being.
We discussed that if these treatments are effective in ridding him of the cancer, he will fly here for a short time so we can spend some quality time together. If not, I will go out there to be with him. Very difficult bwia, very difficult and I don't wish this on anyone.
Thanks again.
