Metallic

4038 mile round trip vacation from Kansas to Salt Lake, Lake Tahoe, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Glenwood Springs Co. Avg highway speed 75-84 at 22.8 mpg. On the famous Lombard Street in SF with a 27% incline, a large group of Japanese tourists were at the bottom scrambling for pictures screaming "it's a Mercedes". Only saw 3 GLK's the whole trip. Excellent handing (a few high speed) thru several mountain and canyon passes for a SUV due to the 4matic, low profile tires and auto damping suspension. Great trip in a great ride!

very nice, how many dings on the front bumper from this trip? Mind taking a pic and posting?

Yea that street is awesome, we took prius down that street when I was visiting my friend. It must suck to live on the street with all the tourists there.

I echo that sentiment!

It is kind of neat though driving it, and its always seems to have traffic.

great pics - I remember trying to find Lombard street on foot and we were walking up this HUUUUGE hill (heading toward Coit tower). I was sooo freakin' tired and trying to figure out why the heck I couldn't find it, only to turn around at the top of this hill and see it clear as day - the other direction!

We ended up driving our rental car down it later that trip - was fun, but very congested as NYC inferred

Nice pics! We were there a couple of years ago and drove down it in our '07 CR-V.
Also, you say you only saw 3 other GLK's o the trip. I still think we are the only GLK owner in a 3 state area because we never ever ever see any others. I guess you have to go on a 4k mile trip to see some. Also, that mileage isn't too bad.

I have driven Lombard many times, but the most nerve racking time was on a rainy day....slippery. In the 3+ months of owning my GLK I have seen 6, it's nice owning a rare ride
