    Okay, just wanted to make sure you weren't planning to try and put a newborn into a rear-facing seat in a 2-door. It's do-able in the VX because of the rear hatch, but damn near impossible in a 2-door car.

    I spoke to my 2 buddies last night who are Merc techs. The cliffs notes of that conversation are as follows:

    Avoid it with your life.

    Oh man, what a piece of !@#$.

    Hope I never have to work on another one.

    Poor man's wheelbarrow. (this one had me on the floor)

    I would just get a Corolla.

    You mean there is still one running somewhere?


    It went on and on, but I think their general consensus was, they suck. But, since it sounds like you jumped on it, good luck I guess.

    I have my eye on the C250 Sport. Nothing to call home to mom about, but there is just something charming, sporty, and affordable about them.
