Interesting the lack of activity with this post...perhaps its just too personal? You know - mother always said I could have done better, married better, got better grades, etc.

At least we all have a fondness for better cars!

I'll have a BS in Physics from UC Santa Barbara in a few days, and will be working as a Quality Assurance Engineer in a few weeks.

My car (that I just bought, and still have a lot to fix before it's working right) is a 1984 300SD (W126). I list the 280C (W114) in my signature, but that's really more my girlfriend's car than it is mine. But I do get to drive it sometimes!
