Hi -

Here it is. Attached is the new SL65 SA and the former SL65. What a "machine."

I incorporated mbworld to offer some validity to the pictures and the claim. Thanks.

Ha! You went black to silver like me! Gorgeous gorgeous sled. I love the black carbon fiber inlays (I swapped out the stock burlwood trim for the black ash myself)...

04 SL55 (sold),05 SL55, 09 SL63, 07 C2S cab Porsche,
I'm 38. Moved up to the SL55 from the M3 last year. In my 20's I had a 1972 yellow VW squareback. It had a maximum speed of 50mph downhill. Sometimes had to start it "Flintstone style".
