Immediately took it on a work trip from Denver to Rapid City (via the Black Hills), and back by way of the twisty road through Rushmore National Forest.

This is, without doubt, the best car I have ever driven. Traded in a Z4.
I have an injured back, hip, and knee, and have never found a car as comfortable as this. Seat heat to act as a heating pad, the massage function of the seat, and the range of adjustment are all phenomenal.
Also, Wyoming just upped the limit on I-25 to 80mph

As an aside, I must say: I have wanted an SL for 30 years.
And I truly think the R230 is the most beautiful design MB has put out since the R107 was penned 45 years ago.

My only regrets are;
1) That it took so long to get one, and
2) that my 230 is already eight years old, and I don't know how long it will be able to be my daily driver. I fear that in 6 or 7 years, it will have to be retired, and there won't be anything to replace it with.

SL500 R230
As it sits today.... needs new tires (due to time, not wear)
Not hating these wheels, but now is the time to buy different wheels to freshen the car up a bit.
