Not a single SL on the Autobahn

Traveling this week in Europe on business. Had meetings between Frankfurt and Bonn. Rented a Porsche Panamera S to do the drives (interesting car by the way - great engine). Anyway, in traveling 300 km on the Autobahn (hitting speeds of 225 KPH - 150 MPH or so), I didn't see one single MB SL class.

Where are all the SL's in Germany????

I guess you were unlucky. Whenever I drive in Germany I regularly see them, including the AMGs

I totally agree, I've been there a few times, but the first time I went, I imagined I would see Porsche, Ferrari, SL but all you get is big Beemers,
Audi's and MERCS. Strange, but then I haven't seen another SL63 in the
UK yet.
