06 vs 07 SL55
What really changed other than 20 more HP. I have an 07 on order but the prices on low mileage 06's really look pretty good. Also I keep seeing people saying the auction prices are better. How would one go about getting one through a broker and where does one find a broker that comes with good references to help locate a car. I suppose used 07's could be had at this point too. Please let me know you thoughts and recomendations. I'm not too picky on options. Color is important. Looking for Irdium Silver with light interior (Ash). Would like keyless go and ventilated seats. The rest is open.

The slight power difference as well as the front bumper and rear/brake lights along with the wheels are the other major external changes.
The sill plates have also been revised.
Your best bet for the money may be a used 06 SL55 although I have seen new 07's discounted as much as $10,000 on eBay.
If you need a good broker who will do some research on finding you the best deal available, contact Amil at "ajf1" (MBWorld member) or 404-822-5247.
