Nice indeed. Just bought GT4 for my little brothers birthday. He'll be delighted.

Me too as I actually drive (the 55) IRL.

What, no GT4?

It is CGI, so what then, 3D-studio?

Pics are from Gran Turismo 4!

Originally I thought about not mentioning that these pics are from GT4, just to see the reactions from those who saw them. I took these pics in GT4's photo mode, where you can save them on a memory stick and transfer onto a PC.

I got the game last week and must say that this is one hell of a game! Great graphics, different handling depending on the car, and nice car list. The SL65 in the game (and probably like in real life) goes like stink! I drove it on the Nurbergring and it was fast!!! Of course, I then raced the SLR on the same track chasing the ghost replay of the SL65 lap and the SLR handled better and was even faster!

That is what i meant by pulling a prank with that teaser subject. You did mention GT4 graphics, but kinda hidden. Pics are beautiful anyway.

How did you get your top down on the SL? I have a super-modded SL65 and it is always top up? Also, I love the BBS wheels on the SLR. I have a silver SLR and am thinking about selling it and getting a black one just cause it looks better. The really scary thing is that some people trade cars in real life like I do in GT4!!

Why not have both.

Thanks! I have both a Silver and a Black SLR. Silver on standard rims and the Black as you noticed, on BBS rims.

I am yet to figure out how to have the roof up or down by my choosing. My fully modded SL55 has it up most of the time, yet my fully moded SL65 has it down. Need to check whether it depends on the track its on.

By the way the fully modded SL65 is faster than the fully modded SLR in a straight line!
