Beautiful SL Ron

I love the diamond white paint, esp on the SL AMG!

SL63 vs BMW

On the way home I came to a traffic circle waiting was an M3 new type, my
headlights caught the grinning young guys' face and those big wheels.
I slammed on the loud pedal and to my surprise pulled quite a distance on him,
I suppose he was almost at a standstill. A car soon got in my way and I had to slow allowing him to catch up to around 3 car lengths. The car in front moved and once again I squeezed that pedal, ahead was a very fast bend
and I thought he might score on road holding, nope just gradually left him for dead. When it came to my slip road I slowed, and as he passed it wasn't an
M3 it was a 335i. How much faster is a M3.

I had 11 cars for a while and every time I wanted to use one it was buried behind several other cars.... and then it would have a dead battery! I now have 4, which is much more manageable for me.... However, I am getting ready to add a Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale!

Nice, I bet like me you have got through a few batteries in your time.
I have one with a big switch so I can isolate the battery, still manages
to go flat after time.
Don't you find when you have had 11 cars, the place seems empty when you get down to 4.
