2019 S560 Coupe
Thanks and a farewell to the SL forum

I just want to thank those of you here in the SL forum. I sold my 2017 SL550 yesterday and am migrating over to the S Coupe forum, as I have purchased a 2019 CPO S560 coupe to be my new car. Many of you were extremely helpful and informative as I began my search for an SL, and during my year of owning one. The SL is a fantastic car, a wonderful vehicle - just not the vehicle for me. For anyone in the market for one, mine had only 8937 miles on it and is loaded with Magic Sky, nappa leather, and I did the amp addition to make the back speakers work. It is white on beige (though currently wrapped in a vinyl red that the dealer is removing). It was picked up yesterday to be shipped to Mercedes of Willoughby in Ohio, where I hope it finds a wonderful new owner that gives it the a good run.

Thanks to all of you here, and I wish you all many years (and miles) of safe and happy driving!

I hope you enjoy the new vehicle. The S class is a great ride for sure. Shame you couldn't keep both as I suspect there will be those days when you'll miss the SL.
