Great shots...

Great pics G-baby. The contrast between the brick and the Black SL is gorgeous. I just got word that I've got a production date in March/April and really can't wait since I saw your pics. BTW, a Silver/Grey SL55 just sold off my dealers lot with 3500 miles for around $170K...A Houston car, commanding old Silicon Valley prices !
Enjoy the Beast and let us know how that first 1000 miles goes. (what was the brake problem ?)

G-baby!!

Sweet SL55 you've got there.

By the way, our engines were built by the same guy! That's the same signature I have on my C32!

Congratulations!!!

Have the same color combo and love it every time I look at it (and drive it) .

I am absolutely jealous of the weather you have. We just have too much snow where we live

Enjoy...
