he probably out driving it!! We may not hear from him again...at least not until he has a laptop with internet service installed in the car...but then again ....if he does that he will have to get voice activation....as I am sure he will not want to stop to type a message!!!

nice :)

Can you help us out a bit on the pricing--was the $130K for the car + options, or did it also include taxes? What was the base price for your awesome machine? What additional options were available?
Congrats on the new machine.

sl55 wait times??

I just found out from the dealer that my SL500 (w. Sport option) will be ready in July. I'll probably go ahead and buy the car.

I put in an order for an SL55 today as well..the dealer said that the wait time looks like about 18 months. Is that consistent with what other people are hearing??????

The dealer was expecting the LE in the show room potentially as early as this weekend.
