Long time lurker, first time owner...

First I want to thank the board members for their information. It was invaluable as I sought out my first Mercedes.

I just purchased a 2004 SL55 AMG with 25k miles on it. After spending the first day detailing the car and setting it up, i can't get the grin off my face.

It is the best car I have owned.

Thanks to all

Vader1,

Your car looks really good! I cant wait to see more pics

As equetefue said, that is really low mileage! Looks like you have years of enjoyment ahead of you!
