Chages: front Gill, Front Spoiler, Rear Lighst, and some said that some "lines" is changed but i can't see them, but the straith grill and the new mouth make it look like

Unhappy Tuning brands idea for a facelifted SL, earlier this year

Mercedes-Benz did drobbed the SLR nose, because the SLR woulden't look that exclusive, and special. Thank god for that...But the real facelift allmost look even worser, they shoulden't even facelift the SL yet! Only in 1954 they facelifted the beutifulest car in world succsesfully, with making the 300 SL roadgoing version!

"Minor cahnges"? The new front spoiler, and front grill make it looks like a koreaian car to a price like 5-10.000$. The rear lights is okay, but normaly Mercedes does only faclift thier SL once each 12 year! (Grammer probs. yet again but so is it when you eat cage instead of learning english the half of the week)

What do you mean...The SL's without the SLR front cone is real, the SL with the front cone, is tuning makers there would give the rest of us, an idea of how the new SL would be lokking, but they were wrong. You can still order a SL from the tuningmakers with the SLR nose, but the SL without the nose, adn the B-class-cheap-looking frontspoiler, will become real in 06-08. Nice car you got there anyway it would cost about 400.000$ in my country...

More pictures. Stating to belive?

Other Pictures. The two of them there are Tellursilber mettalic are old spy shots, that i actually think have been posted in a formum, in here before. Notice the grill around the pipes, normal it's only the AMG models, that have this, so if it is a AMG model, the small grill arond the pipes will be the single differnce, between the normal SL's, and the AMG's

Just a car, i got two 1:18 scale cars at side of my bed, a SL55AMG and a SL500, unlike you, who have the real deal! The SL is my dream car, like the old days where every boy in the world had a Lamborghini Countach on the wall. i've just downloaded the song that was make to the Sl(r230)'s launch called "The One", Damn they just can't facelift it! poor car!... and i don't know what Ritalin is...Midicin? Crack? P.S why does your SL500 have AMG tail lights? I'm confuesed is it standard on 2005 model?...Anyway be glad, you have a SL, i can't get a SL, even when its 20 years old it will still be to expensive for Denmark!
