1200 miles on my ML63 and loving it!

This vehicle is awesome. What a machine. Every morning when I start it up and hear that roar my day starts in the right way.
Is anyone else enjoying this vehicle as much as I am?
It was worth the wait.

I'm loving it so far... no problems yet. NONE... (OK now I'm sure I've jinxed myself!)

Come on Man! I'm still waiting for pictures of that white ML63 Michaelt... I haven't seen a white one yet!

I have a little over 2,000 miles on my black ML63 and have had no problems at all. Sure is a nice change over the '05 and '06 Cayenne Turbos that I used to own

Photos please michaelt.

Smokin hot man! It would have been a tough choice for me if my dealer had a white and a black one sitting on the lot. My other SUV is white and I love it. So eay to care for.

great looking ride...

Well I hate to be redundant but I have a 1000 miles on mine and it the best car I have ever driven. When the car is lowered does that also make the suspension stiffer?

posted. Thanks for the compliments on the color. Glad I didn't pick white and tan. The black interior gives it some umph!
One thing about this vehicle I appreciate is that as tight as it is, you don't have to worry about bottoming out on every speed bump etc.
It is an amazing combination of sport driving and practicality. I have drived Audi S4's, 911's, M3's, Vipers and this thing is comparable. ( maybe not the Viper)
