Finally made a childhood dream come true!
As the title states, I have finally bought a car that I have wanted for most of my life. The SL55 AMG in Brilliant Silver has been a dream that I never thought I would obtain. Years of working my way through building up my education and career, I have finally made it happen! I am ecstatic to join this community! Looking forward to contributing in any way I can and learning from the wisdom of this forum! I have attached a photo the seller took. I will be improving the clarity of the headlight lenses and working on the paint, etc. before taking my own photos. Cheers!
