Stunning. Thanks for the share.

There's a dealer lot (Non-Mercedes) with a silver SLR just sitting on a lift... being baked in the scorching sun just a few miles from my place. It's nice, but I always ask myself, "Why would they place such a thing outdoors and not keep it inside?"

I wonder how much I could pick one up for used. I figure might as well let someone else take the depreciation hit on it lol, though money is clearly not an issue.

beautiful car. they've got a silver on red/black one at bev hills that's been gathering dust for about a year -- next to an all chrome sl55 (must be hell to polish). definitely looks superb in black.

what are the wheels on it called, and how can i get a set for my e55? how much would a set of 4 of those badboys cost, anyway? they are the cat's pyjamas, fer shurr!

Saweeeet, Is that in Jackson? Think it came there rather than the gulfcoast because of Katrina? Has it been spoken for yet?

BTW I like it better in black than silver. Silver's interior is a little gaudy.

I prefer Silver anyday, especially the highly metallic Silver that comes on the SLR but it definetly has a sinister quality about it in Black! Mhaynes772, what kind of phone did you take the pics with, they are pretty good for a phone camera!

From the reflection in one of the photos, I think he took it with the Moto Razr phone.

Ugh, that is ugly. I agree with Dgussin, I love those carrera GTs. Seen a couple in NC. The yellow looks awesome on the Porsche when it flies by you.

It looks so sinister in black.. it's the only colour I like them in...

Hey.. Do you think they would notice if you went and removed those nice air-water intercoolers and the air intake system on the top of the engine and shipped them to me???? I'll pay you for your troubles..

That engine compartment looks awesome!!

When my E55's engine grows up it wants to be just like that one in the SLR..
