Just a quick heads up from a newbie. Took delivery of a 2007 iridium silver w/ ash SL550. AMG sportpackage, Voice Control, Premium 1, and Wood Trim. This will be my summer drive and will be keeping company with a 06 M5 Black on Black.
So far its a great cruiser with alot of power for 382 horses.

Any important problems I should know, please be free to state.

Thanks,

Bob

Welcome to the forum!

My biggest problem is that I feel separation anxiety if I go multiple days without driving the car!

We got our SL550 pewter in January. The extra horsepower over the SL500 is nice. No problems with ours.
