First Benz ever

Pulled trigger on the 2013 Black/Black SL550 with 48k on the clock.
I'm very happy with the car and so far so good!!
Pics will come next.
Former ride was the BMW Z4 and it is day and night differences but then the Z4 is a totally different animal on its own rights.

In a perfect world the SL would be the only car I need. Unfortunately I do things like carry tools, groceries, people etc. But it's the most MB MB I feel since it's so so ahead of the curve and so many cars live in it's shadow. I don't think Japan has yet to do anything remotely comparable.
