Holy crap what a beast. I rode shotgun (no licence currently-medical) the guy from the shop it's at took me out for a ripp, it's off to the detail shop next. Anyways, what a freekin beast. I've had lots of fast cars, my last foxbody mustang went 9s, I've had vettes, an 87 GN, etc....This thing pulls so hard The Cats were kinda smelly after (I told him to 'beat'on it-he was an awesome driver)
All it has is a RennTech tune, maybe I'll do catted DPs.

It was a hot, humid day too, like 90 plus degrees
Love the massive torque and smoothness of the M275.
I'm definitely glad I got a 65 not a 55
I've heard this engine being referred to as a 'gentle giant'. I get it !!

[QUOTE=AMGenema;8566081]What kind of wheels are on there? I really like them![/QUOT
They are 20x9 and 20x12. I don't know the brand, 'Made in China'. They seem strong and well made. But I think they look good too. I'll have them inspected, and repair any blemishes/curb rash then Powdercoated Gloss Black.
Mine is a 2007, no tune that I’m aware of - I have had v-series Cadillacs previously, so I am familiar with fast cars, but nothing I have experienced has the reserve capacity of the SL65. It goes so fast, so easily. Never flustered or “on the edge”.
I test drove mine with the dealer sales rep riding shotgun. Poor fellow (25ish) had never been in one. He was inducted into the shock-and-awe hall of fame trying to hang on to anything. Needless to say he made a sale that day.
