Euro Preview - picked up my car in Sindelfingen......
I don't have a ton of time to post a lot of pictures, but here's a sample of what i took. The car is stunning, amazing, scary fast, all at the same time. I've put about 580 miles on and by the time the trip is done, I should be at the end of the break in period. It's been such a struggle to not go 170mph. i've been cruising at about 90mph everywhere here and i keep getting passed. I passed a polizi doing 90 and then a few seconds later, I got passed by two BMWs doing about 140. The cop was yawning.
The car gets looks everywhere i go, and the verdict is in.... The red caliper brakes are completely bad ***. I love them. so un-Mercedes.
If you guys ever have a chance to tour the plant at Sindelfingen and the AMG plant, DO IT. it was absolutely amazing.
I'll post full videos and tons of pictures when i get back..... here's a few.

Hey guys. Well i drove the car through the alps today - the temp was between 33 F and 40 F. It was amazing. I hit 900 miles today, so i began to lay in to the engine. I'm averaging about 16-17 MPG, which i expected, and I suspect when i start driving faster, that will drop to 13 -14. WHO THE HELL CARES WHEN YOUR CAR SOUNDS THIS F***ING GOOD!?!?!?!?!?
Did

Amazing fun you are having, but I couldnt imagine EIGHT WEEKS without the beast, yikes, that is going to lead to alot of day dreaming.
