Forgot to mention it was listed at around $450,000. They said what they do is auction the car and anything over what their set profit margin is they donate it to charity.

Yeah, we have sold one before and the car looks so cool.

The seats were really low and the sterring felt solid. Too bad I can't do a test drive on it....

CLS500. Couldn't get good angles as the room it was in was too small to capture the entire car on the side view and front.

I think black paint is best for the SLR. It really shows its true aggressiveness. Thanks for sharing.

If Batman wanted a German car, it would be a black SLR.
