Awesome looking garage regardless

Enjoy both
Absolutely. Except, I think the two cars are nice compliments (to own). Very different experiences.

Glad to read your impressions on the 360 and SLS. I'm a 360 owner (stick) and about to pick up my SLS tomorrow. You, Sir, have impeccable taste. Great minds think alike!

Ha! I guess so! Too funny. I think you'll find the 360 a nice compliment to the modern SLS. You're lucky you have a stick too. The 360 will feel a little like a classic car next to the SLS, but the experience is very different. The 360 is much lower to the ground, feels more like a go-cart. The SLS just has so much power, but it's so much newer and refined, it's a little more sterile. I say that, but I LOVE driving the SLS. Both great cars to have. Congrats!

Keep me posted on your thoughts.
