600 finally here!
My 05 SL600 showed up (finally) yesterday. I bought it from a dealer in Oklahoma last week, it felt like it took forever 😀 I have to say that it is nothing short of awesome to drive. Even though it’s only been in the 40’s here I still put the top down and took it for a few rides. I love it!
One quick question, I’m not sure if it has the owners manuals. I have looked through the car, but damn there are nooks everywhere. Would they typically be in the glovebox?
Thanks everyone.

55,000 miles, from what I can tell the only added option is the distronic cruise control. I really haven’t had time to enjoy it. I’ll have more time (and sunshine) on Friday. It sure puts a smile on my face

Very nice! I got mine a month ago and i can't stop driving it, esp with the top down. first thing first, put the car on a lift and inspect all the ABC hoses, anything that's damp, weeping, or leaking needs to be tended to.
You plan on modding it?

I put it on a buddies lift yesterday, no leaks that I could see. I’m not planning on doing any mods to the car. I’m more of a “stock” kind of a guy. I wasn’t sure about the color when I saw it in the pictures online, but really liked it when it got here!
i think it’s Aggean blue Rodney. The title isn’t here yet, so can you tell me if there is somewhere on the car I can find the color code.

Looks great! I like that color. I personally prefer any color that is not the usual 95% black, silver or white, but that's just me. Benton, as in Benton, Arkansas?
You had to wait a week? Don't feel bad. I am currently having to wait 5+ weeks to ship my new 2011 SL550 from Memphis to Sweden!!

AH, yes, that's a much more blue color. And a nice departure from the usual black, white and silver. I think MBZ has more blue colors than anything else. Both my SL and ML are 755 Tenorite Gray (a.k.a. Steel Gray) and they looks very blue out in the sun - a bluish-gray. My CLK was 357 Iolite Blue (a.k.a. Cadet Blue) and it was more of a grayish-blue. Ironically, I've had more blue cars in my life than any other color. Mostly the blue-gray variety. It's not like it's may favorite color, it just works out that way.
