Smile Picked Up My 07 SL55

Just picked up my 07 SL55 the other day. Still have quite a bit to learn. I just got my Motorola RAZR "paired" with the new Bluetooth cradle that I bought directly from AWS. Still need to program the garage door opener, figure out the voice control, NAV system, etc., etc. Lots of reading to do.

I wish my salesman could have given me a better walkthru. He just gave me a two-minute rundown (if even that). Also - no amenities whatsoever! I remember folks in this forum talk about what they got from their dealer... My salesman told me that I got a very good deal with not much left for him. I think I did but still... Oh, I got a full tank of gas, that's it.

Absolutely love the car though!!!

Congratulations, I am jealous..........

When I picked up my '05, I got a full tank as well,

And the salesman showed me how to raise/lower the car and

put the top up/down........and that is about it.

On-The-Job-Training and a lot of reading to learn a -55, IMO.

Congratulations, again..........

Dave

Sorry idrivatitleist - I'm out of town right now (part of the job requires weekly travel)... Sucks alright but that's what pays the bills. Promise next time I have a longer weekend...

Bari, did you find a deal acceptable to the ones you were looking for?
I remember one time you asked in a thread, and I redirected you to your own thread. I'm such a doof.

Yes, I remember! That was funny! And I did get a good deal (I believe) - $1k above invoice. Thanks for asking...

Happy New Year!

Bari,

Good for you! Now we need pictures? Any plans for future mods?
