My brother has a 55 and I recently purchased an '05 600 and test drove the 55 extensively. The 55 is fast and sporty, but it doesn't have the brute force that the 600 has. Also, Before I bought my CL500, I looked at CPO CL55 (I test drove them six times-my salesperson was very patient) for a little more $ and was disappointed and felt that the CL500 was a better everyday driver (and that the 55 wasn't worth the extra money). My SL600 is in a different category and IMHO a better car for everyday driving--it's faster, smoother, quieter and more comfortable for not much more $. Screw the depreciation assocaited with the V12s.
I'm sure that Lexani put an a$$ whuppin' on that SL55 that'll make him think twice.

Theres like two ancient rome-like type buildings where the park is, and on them it says: Newport Coast or something along those lines.
we have our own super rich areas too in my valley. I was just at a man's house, who owns an F40 and 360 Modena
. Guy is really cool too. When i go down PCH i usually end up at gladstones in, or i come from where the 101 and the 126 meet, and ride down there, or i ride the PCH to zuma.

Im more than willing to meet you some where Lexani and takes pics of your car, my digi cam also allows me to take small videos so about 30-40 seconds long i believe. That should be good enough. Let me know if you want to meet. You can drive up here, or i can drive down there or we could meet half way.

When do you have in mind? And where would you want to go and/or do? Just throw it out, and we could decide on something.

Lexani I have to say that I'm sure the majority of true enthusiasts on this forum have no reason to believe you would lie about the cars you own. I don't understand the constant e-bullying directed at you and speak for the rest of board in saying that the few voices that appear to be big and bad in this thread aren't a representation of the feelings among the majority of the board members. You have a very respectable collection and i'm sure grabbing the right set of keys is one of the hardest decisions you make everyday.

As for the e-bullying, I mean, you do what you can do, you know? I can only do so much to stop it. I know that a lack of video, on a thread, that is specifically named with Video in it, is a fault in my part. I just thought I could upload the video. I know it hurts my credibility, and such, but, again, I can only do so much. I have tried, to post it, but always came up with a picture or nothing at all. I see where the e-bullying is coming from, and I understand, however I just wish for it to stop, even more so, when I insulted no one. Again, Thanks for your support in this matter, it shall not be forgotten. And you right. It is pretty hard to choose my car for the day. I never really, though about that, until you mentioned it.
