Yeah, it's kinda funny, but in Baltic's this person is DJ, VJ and etc.
That was my idea: to check if girl will fit SL trunk It seems that trunk is BIG! I even tried to open top with her inside trunk - approved!

thats was cool! but i didnt know if i was supposed to laugh or take the guy serious they should have let you review the car because it seems he didnt really know too much about it except for what you told him. but you ride is looking good. you should definitedly have a line of girls wanting to get in your trunk now

i'm actually in Istanbul Turkey right now, and im missing my ride but i have only seen 1 Sl while i've been here. your euro plate reminded me of the black 1 I saw.

Hehe, yeah it seems that he only told what i made plus to this SL.
Otherwise, we agreed on another video after all mods will be done, so I'll tell him to work on his speech

I'm from Lithuania, we have here few SLs, but nobody is doing modifications to it, so I'm the only one who is loving this car like all guys here

Yep: 753, Tektite Grey. A great color but only a few of us out there.

BTW, has anyone told you lately that your SL is especially sharp looking?

tektite is one of my fav colors...before I bought my black sl, I had test driven a tektite w/ parktronic, pano roof, and TPMS....I loved the color immediately, rememmber thinkin, wow it's kinda black, kinda ash, kinda charcoal...I kinda like it! Went outta town for the weekend and it was sold so I got my second choice, a nice 040 black car with keyless go...

You can find it online by running your VIN through the VIN decoder run by the Mercedes Benz Club of Russia: http://old.mbclub.ru/mb/vin/?lng=eng

You can also find it on your car. Some helpful tips on how are here: http://www.expresspaint.com/helpful_...e.asp#mercedes
