In Europe the new SL's came out as 2002's. Looks like SQL's SL is in Poland (license plate country ID PL)...

Nice car

Here's our SL55...

Unfortunately, with snow tires I know summer will come, but I am itching to drop the top.

Don't know how you guys keep your cars so clean. One drive in mine in the winter weather and it's filthy. BTW, is anyone picking up stone chips?

that's right, it is in Poland because i live in Poland, funny thing is that it is the first new SL sold in my country. If you want to see some more pics of the SL and RS4 you can visit the gallery at www.track-challenge.com

btw what does it mean that my car has a "typo"??

I thought that your car was a 2003, and not a 2002 like u have posted. I was unaware that the car was released as a 2002 in Europe. A typo refers to a typograpical error.

Wolfman, thanks, your car looks great too, and it's a bit more powerful than mine, that's what i heared.

Well it's interesting which car would be faster for 1/4 mile - your SL55 or my RS4...

One thing that i think shouldn't be put on SL are those orange lights on the sides of the bumpers there in the US. We don't have those here in Europe.
