Hey, I recognize that dealership. So, I'm coming up in a couple of weeks with my baby and you're adding more mods. Jeeze Jim, I don't think you have anything to worry about. You're probably putting down more power than the SLR already!

PM me if you want to grab some lunch. I should be done around 11:30-12:00.

Video camera coming. Hopefully I'll have a camera man.

Just the EVO cooling mod adding extra heat exchanger and separating the systems. Really think that is what killed me at the track the other day (massive heat).

Just horrible weather here. Cold and rain kinda have me grounded, but when I can, I am excited to run IAT's again.

Ohhh... Because you said the dealer is adding the cooler, so my impression was MB came out with an add-on cooler?!
I see now. EVO cooler upgrade =

<- Saving up for it...

I saw a baseline SLR at a UK dealer 2 weeks ago, sticker price was 333,000 pounds!
That's $660,000+ USD!

Put the steering wheel on the left and get a discount of $250k!

My friend went to fletcher jones and got pissed off because they said they have it and they set and appointment for him to go see it. When he got there no car was found they told him that it was sold and didn't bother calling him to say not to come.

I would have been pissed since he drove like 80 miles to go see and want to buy it.
