confirmed by dealer...
mercedes will build 1000 SL 55's for the US for the 2003 model, that means average size dealers will see about 2-4 cars a year.

If past history is anything to go by, the waiting lists shorten somewhat once the car becomes a more familiar sight - happened with the old SL and the SLK. My dealer assumes 50% of the people waiting will not complete.

Speaking of the DuPont Registry..
There are dozens of SL500's for sale.
There is also a person selling an SL55 for US$25,000 over MSRP. Their description says "We have the first five SL55's coming into the U.S.". I find that hard to believe.
