Said it is tight with a helmet and he is trying to get his hands on the Euro seats for more room.
It is his daily driver.

SLS is a neat car but there is a lot of competition at 200k. And yes I think a like new but used Ferrari or Lambo is competition. I probably would rather own a F430, sl65 or 911 Turbo all of which I own. It not really a sports car and not a roadster. I think over time (about 15 minutes) the gull wing doors would be a PITA. I can own the car no sweat but probably won't. A 200K car is an emotional decision. The SLS is neat but not much to be passionate about. I agree with Sound 8 I think over time they sit like the SL65 black does.

Do you own all of these cars or you would rather own all of them than just one SLS, LOL
