Oppo, I have been defeated.
Last week I posted about this beater Maserati on the next block. This week saw why it is street parked: this sweet older Mercedes that is fucking minty.
I thought I had the most jalop fleet in the neighborhood. Yeah, I got two boring Hondas for kid hauling and commuting, but I also got a NB2 Miata modified for autocross, and a 2006 tundra. Combined, they got 400000 miles. I was feeling good about myself. Yeah, my neighbors has a cool old truck and cool old Camaro, but they don’t run, haven’t for years, and are more rust than metal. They’re sadly past the point of no return, I think.
But this guy? God damn. I am vanquished. I surrender my title. I concede the neighborhood.

That C124 looks remarkably delicious.

Oh fuck, that Mercedes is right up there with my top-5-wanted cars.

I've warmed up to that era of Mercedes a LOT

It looks like it's in fantastic shape

No worries! His Jalop card has been revoked for street- parking the wrong direction. You’re still the king of the neighborhood.

Yeah, don’t tell anyone about their potential for awesome.

Ha! My u-turns to park appropriately have paid off! In your face!

If they moved the Mercedes up, they could fit that Maserati on the driveway.
So not only is the street parking unnecessary, they parked in the wrong direction.
Thus, you are better than this Maserati owner.

Yeah but I bet their third car is a 2014 Toyota Carol la S.

How beater is that Maserati? I can’t tell too much beyond the moderate brake dust.

Love those 124s. My boss just bought a convertible 124 after it got traded in. 1 owner car with 50k miles. Too bad I’m too poor

I would love to know what he paid for that, expressed in a percentage of it's original price. 5%? Less?

There is a guy in my neihborhood who can’t stop buying Mercs. I’ve counted five so far. All registered recently, all parked within 200' of each other.

Meanwhile, nothing shows up on CL for "w124". That bastard.
