Does the SL come with an Electronic trunk closer??

It is going to be an option for 07

I didn't know if this has ever or always been available for the SL

Hey Nicke, great wheels on your SL (and sits nice and low):

A bit retro, but very sharp.

Because we're insanely lazy.

Sometimes I wish I had an electronic trunk closer when my hands are full and I don't want to set stuff down because the ground is wet.
