My Red Devil Is Heeeeeeeeere…..
I finally got my red devil… I got it from the port yesterday, but with no license plates. And I was driving it with the biggest headache ever. Because I was waiting in the port for more than 3 hours. So I didn't really had the feel of it. I think by this weekend I will be able to drive it freely.
Magma Red / Berry Red (exclusive leather), Distronic, Linguitronic, Five spoke wheels, .. etc. I know I had every option on the car except Pano roof.
I will post picture as soon as I get my camera working…

Thank you all…. Morebhp, FYI, reading manuals is a habit. Specially when it is a major (and expensive) toy. 
Last night was my first experience. I had one of my friends with me.
I have been hearing about how the sound is so good. But I couldn't understand it tell I drove it yesterday. It is indescribable. You have to hear it your self so you would know what I mean.
When I drove it out of the garage, I decided to impress my friend with the torque. So I gave the gas paddle a little push…. I scared my self. I'm not lying. I was not ready for the torque to jerk my head that quick. I felt dizzy for few seconds after I took my foot off the gas peddle. :o
My friend was so shocked that he kept his mouth open.
I still didn't play with the gadgets in the car. But the car is worth to wait for .

Where are you based?
Photo's photo's photo's.
Have fun....it just gets better every day....but the weathers starting to get bad in the UK and frankly this car has toooooooo much power to use it in the wet so I'm gonna use my ML for most of the winter (except on those cold sunny days we sometimes get when I'm gonna really enjoy the car).

Pauld... am in Kuwait.
The car is great now. Am just having problems converting every thing from German to English. Now I finished the command and the computer in the steering wheel. I just have to convert the voice command. The dealer forgot to send me an English manual for the voice command.
Other than that. The car is GREAT. There are no words to describe it. Am still having a problem not going over 4000rpm. It is to tempting...
Sorry, the pictures will be delayed a bit. Am having problems with my camera.

Sorry every body.. still didn't have time to take pictures. I just finished today my registration procedure. I took me for ever. Now I have to run around for the insurance.

Thnak you NightSea. But what is a formal registration?
KU104. The insurance you need to get the reistration is only the Liability('9ed el '3eer). But the full coverage (shamel) is the one that yo get to protect your car. What type and color of your car?
