That's the Fab Design package, but I only like the rear lip sopiler and the wheels.

I'm sorry folks

but, in my opinion, if Mercedes, after having had invested millions and millions into design and engineering, didn't come out with these extras, I wouldn't get it.

Those are aftermarket accesories, not oficial extra from the factory but thats make the car industry so exited because you always could improve your car.

I think we're getting close to the ultimte SL here. What that car REALLY NEEDS is one of the old school limo TV spoiler/antena and some stickers... that and maybe some neon lighting on the under carriage. PHAT!
