You now owe it to your car to move to a warmer climate. I spent 30 years in NYC and now 10 in So Cal....its worth the crappy food...

i thought the ambient lighting was selectable between orange and blue(polor?)

it said this on MB website, or somewhere, im sure i read it.

congratulations, car looks amazing. although this color seems to be becoming a fairly common one

glad i ordered black.

As an owner of one, I encourage you to upgrade the ecu at renntech.

It is 1000 miles , not to rev the engine over 4500rpm .
I think the engine is broken in by AMG , but the rest of the drivetrain is not.

LOL I know, I was listing the colors for laymen to understand... some might think solar is yellow... I dont know I guess I could go to my car and actually read the gauge but that would require me to put down my beer
