New Jersey SL55s

What a weird day, a friend called me up reporting to me that he spotted a white SL55 near my house (near Morristown, NJ). Then as I'm taking a nap, another friend calls up and tells me he's on his way to pick me up for a surprise. We drive to one of the restaurants he valet parks at and lo and behold....a brand new SL55...WOW! We took some video and pics of the car, luckily since my friend knows the parking manager we got to ogle at the car for awhile, take some video, pics and even got to sit in it for a second. We tried to treat the car with the utmost respect and admiration, we didn't even touch it except for when we sat in it. Well, enough talk, here are some pics and the vid....

This shot was taken about 20 minutes after the others...you'll get it after you watch the video







Here's the video...

hehe, well, the content isn't THAT good...unfortunately I missed the car driving. When we got there, the guy had just come back from letting the parking manager take a test drive. Lucky guy. But the sound was amazing.

All of the above
Yes the SL55s are here!

SL55s are being delivered. According to "netstar" there are about a dozen in the country at dealerships. There is one at House of imports. Hello MarcusBenz, did you get a ride in it yet?
Our first one came off the production line 07/26 but is not on the boat yet, we should have it here early Sept.
