SL500 and A-CLASS
It looks like my Pewter SL. Is that pewter? Congratulations.
I recommend that you raise the suspension to two red dots. If you do not, you will cry when you scrape the front end.

Here are a couple more pics...Hmmm, what to Mod First?

Painted reflector? The new AMG taillight? Rims?
Its such a new car I don't even know whether Tuner like Brabus or Carlsson offer add-on kit for it. Maybe you can change the bodykit, but it looks good enough in current stock kit IMO.

Unfortunately, the lowering module for the 07 SL has not been released by any manufacturer since the programming on the 07 ECU is entirely different. Additional aerodynamic kit for the car has not been released by any tuners. Thats the bad news. However, Kirby, please stop by our BBQ on July 8th. 
We would love to see your car.

No eisenmann exhaust then i assume? How about supersprint or tuner brands such as Carlsson/Brabus?

I heard the eisemann on my friends M5 and I loved it, sounded like a Ferrari. Had Supersprint on my M3, didn't really care for it. It resonated too much inside the car. Hard to explain...I want something not too obnoxious, but not as wimpy as it is now. Doesn't sound anything like a V8 now.

Hey, are you also a professional photographer?
Those are great pics, and they're stamped with some copyrighted logo on each...
Great car!
