Love the SL in white. Peculiar that it has base model CLS wheels on it, though.

Ya that's one thing I didn't like. It came with the car. Now I'm on the hunt for some AMG wheels. I like your SL wheels. Maybe I'll get something like that.

I think the stock SL65 wheels would look hot on a white SL...

AMGfan, I think so too. I'm searching for them. If you know anyone or where I can get them at affordable price, point me to that direction.

GFear, I love your red. I was looking for that red one you have, but couldn't find one. So I settled for the white and I like it very much. btw, I noticed white and red are pretty rare color for this kind of car...

Love the white as well! charcoal interior on lighter color cars look nice also...you can find many oem wheels; but I agree wheels from an SL65 would really look great; with the dark centers!

Really that's cool...I love the show!!! Since 1997 when I was in college I've been watching it.

...wonder if the charecter's names are actual people the writers/creators knew growing up...and if they grew up in the town of South Park...

I don't know anyone else. We have a few days of sunshine so a drive is a must. I haven't done any mods yet. I'm still getting a feel for the car. I used to drive a Lotus Elise so this car is way different.
