We didn't pressure him, but he was a nice guy and hopefully he will understand that we barely have enough money to keep the lights on, let alone buy a 100,000 dollar car. If he can give back a little bit, it would be wonderful.

You could be right about him being "car poor" although that isn't really an option over here like it is in the west... you have to have some serious money to ever get a Merc and financing doesn't really work so well over here like I have heard it does in Europe and USA
