Finally got my '05 SL55 today!

I finally got my'05 SL55 today. It's Brilliant Silver with a Charcoal/Berry interior. I absolutely love it! I don't regret trading in my '04 SL500. I can't wait to be done with the 1000 mile break-in period...LOL!

Thanks everyone for the advice the past couple of months! I'm glad there is a forum like this on the internet!

How do I post pics here? As for options, I only got bi-xenon. I wanted ventilated seats and keyless go in my original order but couldn't wait for my order to arrive so I jumped on this car...LOL.
