The car apparently sold to another buyer. I just started looking so its not a big deal.

Might just have been your lucky day. Consider again the pluses of a 8 cylinder over the 12. Just my 2 cents.

My search is over. I ended up buying a 2009 SL65. I'll post photos in a new thread after I have washed the car.
