Fess up, which one of you is sporting this license plate? 😆
5500 block of Carlisle Pike (Rt 11) in Mechanicsburg. Are we sure it's not 'shopped? Any law enforcement folks on here who can look up the plate to see if it actually exists?

Unless there is new technology that could ‘shop reality in front of my eyes as I was driving on the Pike this morning, it’s not ‘shopped :)

whomever it is - they should be embarrassed to be driving something as hideous as the GLA *
IMO many of the most over-rated/over- priced cars out there are made by Mercedes Benz. The brand is always in the bottom five of the Power owner reliability ratings. Many knowledgeable foreign car mechanics, when asked, advise potential buyers to stay clear of them. There are models that are exceptions, of course, but you're often buying a lot of headaches and frequent expenses to show off that logo in front of your car. Mercedes owners and lovers --- you are welcome to refute me --- but I neither aspire to, or desire to, purchase one (new or used).

I've owned Audi's, BMW's, and Volvo's (their V-50 wagon was my biggest lemon along with the 1965 Pontiac Firebird with an overhead cam), but presently I am on my second Mazda CX-5. I think "dollar for dollar" it is as good a value as anything out there. I'm older, so have gotten a little more practical. That said, one of the favorite cars I've owned was the original stick shift Datsun 240Z in the early 1970's. It only cost about $2200 - $2300 and was the "real deal". Many fond memories related to its cool look, speed and performance. Second most fun was the Saab Aero turbo in the early 1990's. Its acceleration was simply incredible --- just incredible.

Any thoughts on the Panamera? As I remember (maybe not), you're a car guy.

I think there are probably a lot of better "car guys" on the board than me. Appreciate the compliment, but I've never even heard of the Panamera.
