[quote=Anonymous]I used to drive a Mercedes SL Convertible when I was 29-34 and single. This was back in 1991 to 1997. Mind you back then I loved Queens NY and dated girls in 20s to early 30s.

Folks thought I was a drug dealer or insider trading. I once dated girl in Long Beach with a very blue collar dad. I showed up and picked up daughter in the Mercedes and second date he asked for ride. I picked up girls in Hoboken and Queens same thing. It was a huge recession and I am driving a car like that.

I recall in Brooklyn at clubs they let me park on sidewalk. At parking garages or night clubs they leave it out front.

I really liked it. I bought it used 110k Miles. But I had it repainted in platinum silver and with black interior and convertible top down it was great. In retrospect. I jumped the shark in 1992 when bought a beautiful red wrangler. But did not yet want to sell Benz. I had them both.

My peak craziness was my apt I often really fight to get spot out front as worried get stolen. I had my Mercedes out front with my Red Wrangler in front on street.

I have a date, girl agrees to meet by my place and we are going to dinner. I take her down to my Mercedes and I am expecting her to be impressed. She goes it is nice but o am more of a wrangler person like one in front of us. I say get out for a second and lock car and say I own the wrangler too and took it. I never got another date. She must have thought I was a drug dealer. So yes too much is too much. And I was way out of place for a guy no parking spot. [/quote]
