I'm not even going to lie - I would have stolen that GT3. 20 minutes with that car is worth 20 in the clink.

Great slides, but the best was the SLS free test drive on the famed 17 Mi Drive. I was able to get it up to 105 MPH before I chickened out due to traffic and people. The most amazing car I ever driven-CRAZY FAST.

Thanks MB-especially for the open bar at the Pavillion (meet the most interesting people on the patio overlooking the 17th hole.)

That SLS GT3 looks incredible!

I drove a SLR @ the 2007 AMG Challenge, those things are scary fast. It's hard to imagine how hard your heart would beat behind the wheel of that SLS GT3.

Thanks for sharing!
