I moseyed on down to our local dealership today and saw a R230 black on black! That is the only thing I wish I could change about ours. The Charcoal interior IMO is the coolest looking!

Hahha...thanks guys! And Hi Frank and Danny

I went to HOI today to sign some papers....saw my CLK430 getting its inspections....Can't describe the mix feelings that I was getting at that moment.

Anyways, I'm going to pick up the car on Wednesday.....can't wait......the dual exhausts sounded soooooooo good

Really really hate to let my CLK go, but on the other hand, I get to drive out in a brand new SL.......Sad and excitement all mixed together

$42k trade-in w/ 6k miles on it only. It had all options, wood steering wheel and lorinser roof spoiler and truck lid. I pampered the car so much, and it was sitting on dealer's lot lookingbrand new!!!!

Pictures will be available Thursday
