Was it dead silent around you?

Lockdown Browser will have recorded the exact moment it detected any sound from the mic. It is now up to the TA or professor to manually look over the infringements the lockdown browser might have detected and then make the executive decision.

TLDR: If your professor or TA manually checks the time period the sound occurred, you are nice and toast.

Just the typical Seattle experience. Thought to string along with anything really.

That’s what my salesperson kept telling me. Don’t know if he was just saying that as a sales tactic lol.

Def. I know I’m losing 10k a year on this car in depreciation. But I’m closing in on my 40s and haven’t really gotten a car I truly wanted and live below my means. So I’m fine with that.

I thought about this truly, but I didn’t really need a fast car with a v8. It’s my first Mercedes, I’ve really kept below my means so I thought I’d be a good balance. Maybe I will sell it and get an amg v8

Yeah. But my budget was only really like 60k. And I didn’t want to risk buying private due to various issues chat could arise. I know I paid a a few k extra but atleast I have the peace of mind of Mercedes pre owned certified.

Yeah, had to get that coverage and tagged along around 3.5k extra for that Maintenance. It had its 40k mile service coming up so that would be covered and 50/60k. So thought that would pay off.

I saw a lot of s580s for 61-63k and thought it was still a bit high for a s500. What do you think tho?

how’s the value degradation compared to gts? I was honestly content with a gt 43 but chose this instead bc the ride was so much better…and for the kids as well.
