Thanks raj. I had a couple of SL's in the past and I am looking forward to this one with great anticipation.

Good move on the Mac... there is a book you may want to check out. It deals with CS3 and has step by steps for all the things you would want to do with a digital image. The name is: The Adobe Photoshop CS3 Book for Digital Photographers. Amazon has it for $31. Has unraveled many techniques for me in CS3 and I have only had it a few days.

GL 320CDI
I traded IN my '06 SL for the GL 320 CDI. Must have been a brain infarction. I do miss it. Good luck with your new ride.

Thanks... you have time to experience the SL again and from what I hear the 2011/12 model should be a doosey!

Final Update

Just talked with Greg and the driver cannot provide a definite time on Friday for delivery of the SL to the dealership. Greg wants a full day to do the PDI and detail so we agreed on Tuesday, the 15th. I will take delivery about 4PM and drive it home on Wednesday.

Picture Tuesday night with link to SL thread... got to break them in sooner or later, might as well do it sooner...

You WON'T regret it, I just made the switch yesterday. I got a MacBook Pro...I'm loving every minute with this thing. (I'm a bit of a gEEk)

My next one will be the SL65 BLack Edition... plan to mortgage my soul and first child to drive this machine... if you have not seen it, take a look. It is plain awesome!

Thanks for the compliment on choice of vehicles...was pretty easy since this is the only one they could find of the remaining 2008's...:-)

Looks like a camo'd Opel/Vauxhall Insignia on the left...another great looking car that GM won't give us.
