99000 miles on mine. Use the downshift button to save on brake pads.

A year and 3 months or so for my 05 MCSa. I can take it into the red in DS, and my wife can drive it in auto, so everyone's happy.

Had mine for the past 5+ years - continually adding to it. Drives differently than when I first got it.

I've put about 100 miles on my 04 since I got it last Friday. It's got about 46,700 miles now. Been loving the complete lack of body roll and eatin up the attention it attracts. I had a cute lil blonde girl in a mercedes pull up beside wave and smile and wave on the highway.

I love this car.

I bought mine a little over a month ago. I love it. I keep it in D most of the time, but for those times I want to start off in a lower gear and ready to overtake someone on the freeway, I move it over to SD. I love the automatic transmission in this car. Way more fun than any other auto I have owned.
