Hi All,

I just recently found what seems to be a great deal on an 05 E500 (RWD). The car has 21,500 miles, and has everything except for Xenons and heated seats. I've seen the car and driven it, and it is in great shape. They are asking $35,000 for it, which according to my research, is way below the value of the car. It was a fleet vehicle for an executive at the company I work for, and the guy that was using it retired. They just want to unload it to make some of their money back. Before I take the plunge, I have a few questions:

1. I live in the northeast, and therefore snow is a problem during the winter months. How will this thing behave in snow (or even rain)? I nervous that this thing will be virtually undrivable.
2. I know that I can upgrade the headlights to HID, but how much does that typically run?
3. Is there any way to add Sirius radio to the Nav system? There is a button for satellite, but when I clicked it, it just said that no satellite radio was installed.
4. Is there any clean way to connect an iPod to the Nav system?

Thanks for your help. Any comments you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
