Good luck with the sale, RR. I shared this on FB for you... it's gorgeous.

So hey, what ever happened to those gold wheels? Laying dusty in a corner somewhere?

I noticed your upgrade nav head unit. I have been looking at the same one to put in my 2007 SL55 but wasn't sure if it was good or not.

Have you been happy with that upgrade from the factory unit?

The Dynavin is a nice looking unit with lots of features but sound quality is just decent.
