Too much imo - I'm not much more for 9 months more on a 63 ('08, but brand new). They're sitting around from what I saw here in the NYC area.

As a new owner, the problem I'm finding is there is too much technology. When I back up, a camera goes on, at night the night vision is annoying, to control the ipod you have to use the interface via the odometer screen and not the COMAND screen, there's no heads up display and to see a digital read out of your speed you have to change screens. Annoying. That said, this is one of the finest, most beautiful automobiles I've ever had the privilege of owning - even my M5 and Ferrari buddies think so.

I'm in for 48 months at not much more $$$ in my 63 meaning that your lease is overpriced in my opinion.

Here's the new girl - UNREAL!!! (had them take that garbage Prestige sticker off before I left)...
Awesome pics....I don't know how you sleep at night with that beast in your garage.

Enjoy

BTW..with the 030 I thought you get an alcantara steering wheel and upgrade rims? It looks like a standard CL63 wheel and rims.
Don't forget to get your complementary MB differential oil change at 1K miles.

Thanks - it is easier when you have a fine woman to play with up in the apartment - they come complimentary with all AMG purchases.

Don't know where you came up with the steering wheel, but the rims are upgraded.

Here are the standard rims:
