no longer an SLK55 owner ->Porsche
Hi guys/gals,

Sorry to say I'm no longer an SLK55 owner. I sold my baby to a good friend of mine that I know will take good care of her and appreciate all the modifications made.

So what did I pick up?

Yeah my wife has been telling me that last 2 cars ... not to get silver. Oh well!

Actually I was there to look at a white one with aero package. But it had some rattles that I just wasn't willing to overlook (even if they fixed it). In my opinion you can never really fix those pesky rattles.

Looked at the silver one and found out that it actually had all the options I wanted. Originally I didn't look at it because I thought it didn't have the torque vectoring option. To my surprise, it did so I took it for a drive and said I'll take it!

Yup first mod will be to get rid of the disgusting yellow side markers. Should be interesting to see what the tuners will do with this one. They are dynoing it at 490 RWHP and 490 RWTQ stock!

Nice Porsche...I'm also thinking Porsche if/when I ever get rid of the SLK55. I still enjoy the SLK55 to the fullest, though!
