2007 S 600 / '06 911 Porsche C4S cab
Has anyone switched out of a Porsche 911 to and SLS
As a big MB fan ( I have an S 600) I was thinking of selling my Porsche 911 C4S cab and trying an SLS.
Two questions: has anyone switched out of a 911 for the gullwing?
Did you miss the convertible?
I wonder if switching to a new SLS ragtop would be the thing to do. Does the SLS feel like a real sports car? -- or just a mini S class as the SL's feel like a mini S Class to me.
thanks for your feeback...

carsnob, you will find the SLS far more fun to drive than the SL which is indeed a grand tourer. The SLS is not as involving as a HT RWD 911, but has more brute power and a great blend of handling plus daily usability and to be honest I'd say it'll offer more thrills than your rag top AWD 911 so long as you're okay with not having 3 pedals.
