Talking Old lady drives pimp S550

I was at Lowes the other day and in the parking lot I see this nice modded white S550. I decided to take a quick pic of it when this lady walks up holding her little dog and opens the passenger door, puts in the dog and begins walking around to the driver's side. As I took the pic I said 'nice car!' and she said in a frail voice 'thank you'.

I can't imagine she bought or modded the car, but it was funny anyway.

(She's at the back of the car)

Haha that's funny stuff, bit. Maybe it's her son's car? Maybe her son passed the car over to her?

There is a fairly old gal in my hometown who drives one of these -->

She's got a head full of gray hairs and she's this fragile little old lady. I think she's in her mid 60s.

So, did you try and get her number? Pull an Anna Nicole Smith on her, could be worth it.

The wheels are horrible, she should sell those and get some AMG's.

The wheels look like they're still in good condition, maybe she's just borrowing it.

lol prob a mom with a rich son into cars

has anyone ever seen the show on speedTV called PayBack?
cool show but i feel like the cars are being wasted on ppl that dont appreciate the special modded parts
nevertheless, those ppl still deserve a good car
