My SL-400, Mars Red, designo titanium leather

Some pix, finally.

I have to say, I'm completely satisfied with the SL-400 and what I really want out of a car like this. For my uses, the power is completely sufficient and I like the way the steering feels with the smaller, lighter engine up front. Drove the AMG and liked it, but honestly, just felt like this was a better daily driver for me.

The red is a screaming attention getter!!! Wasn't shooting for that, but dang, it does draw the compliments.

The Sky-View top is amazing as well. Just about zero heat penetration through the glass.

I believe they also offer a designo Cardinal Red which is a bit darker but that Mars Red which I believe you have sure is an eye catcher. Beautiful car.
