New to the group. I will be joining as a paid member cuz I just purchased a very nice 2004 300M base. 133,000 miles, no rust, charcoal gray. Previous owner has replaced nearly everything important in the last 10K miles. Timing belt, struts, front control arms, tie rods. New coolant and water pump with the belt. Carfax shows new oil every 5-6000 at the most. Usually around 3500 miles. Newer Michelins; wrong size. Oh yeah, transmission has new fluid and filter, so the receipt says. Spent half it's life in California, then the rest here in Iowa.
Only blems are a torn and worn drivers seat, a 6" dent in the right rear door which looks easy to fix. One crack in the dash and discoloration of some of the plastic parts in the front seat area.
I've driven it 1500 miles so far and love it. Car drives very nice and tight.
I will do my own maintenance.
More later, with questions.
Just trying this out for size to see how it works.
