So, I have C32 on order, and I went to the dealership yesterday to purchase it and take it back home. So we go through the whole deal of financing, etc... I get into the car, I look at the dash and it says that I have two malfunctions. One was because teleaid had to be activated (understandable) and the other read: battery/alternator problem (what the freak, this is a brand new car). Since I bought the car in manhattan at the park avenue dealership, I had to drive it towards Lincoln tunnel where the repair shop was. So after sitting in a gangload of traffic to get there, they tested the car out and said that it's an alternator problem and they will have to keep the car overnight. So I'm like, cool, rather this crap happens now then later on. I did get a 2003 E320 with the sport package which was a load of fun to drive.
So i go into the city the next day at 9am with my parents and waited at my parents' office for 7 hours and am still waiting. Right now, they say that the repair is done and they're taking it out to test to make sure everything is good. Hopefully everything comes back good.
Sorry if I ranted, but it's pretty disappointing that a brand new car, especially an AMG has these sort of problems straight from the start. Hopefully this is the last of the problems too.
