I agree SL55 and SL550's kinda clash....and a SL63 is just too close to a 65.....I guess people who know...know...while the rest dont matter.

'05 SL 55 Black/Black w/mods from Eurocharged/Kleemann/BuckheadImports
Lightbulb 220 S-Class was from 2000 to 2006 model

The 220 body S-Class lasted here in the States from the 2000 Model Year until the 2006 model year, so the current S-Class will most likely follow the same path .... 6 years. So therefore it should last from 2003 model year to 2009. Then we get completely all-new SL class ....

well the previous s-class (that shared the same body as the previous sl class) lasted 7 years.. the previous sl class was 13.. so i who really knows.. they don't change the sl style as often.. atleast from past history..

i am so happy the facelift does not change much, so now my car will look new for another 6 - 7 years. i think i am still gonna keep this car when the next gen comes out, i dun think there is much they can do to the design anymore. look at the new S, not much difference from previous model.

I am going to be looking at the new interior and the availability of the 030 Performance Pkg as the big potential desirable changes, myself.
