I hear ya GFEAR bro...but if it's any consolation your ride would still look incredible and perform better than 99% of the cars on the cars out there even at 100K miles on the clock...gotta love the SL55 for it's all around appeal!

So what are you gonna get next?

This car (actually this pic alone) is my inspiration to my decision;
I'm gonna "tape" my car red! Or put this foil over it (or what ever it's called...)!
I am a 100% sure & confident about that!

First I was gonna make it white.
Then matt black.
But now ABSOLUTELY RED! No doubt about it!

Besides, how many are there;
For sale in Europe, NONE.

Thanks for the idea input, GFEAR!
