Congrats!! So, any details on the SL? Any pictures? Congrats on the owning an SL55. There have been quite a few trolls running around claming to own cars that they don't own btw. Later daniel.

Thanks for the hospitality...

I'm in the los angeles area and i picked up an 05, pretty much fully loaded...distronic, parktronic, keyless go, pano roof, active ventilated seats, etc.

as far as pics, I'll try to get some posted by this weekend, but it will be boring as the car is still stock..

but I do have wheels, waiting for tires and a wing on order..hehe

Why if he lived in Irvine, he'd fit right in with a half-747 wing strapped to the back of his car.

True, but those are mostly knock-off GT2 wings strapped on Integras and the occasional transplanted WRX STi wing latched to a civic. A true Boeing wing would actually be a nice change of pace... but only if matched with a unpainted CF hood and front and rear air dams with chipping paint.
