Great pics! No, my father's SL63 is the Silver Arrow Edition with P30 package. So it has the twin spoke wheels, special silver paint, red interior and pano roof.
I know what you mean about the dealership. I was in my mid 20's when I got my CLK55 and I got paid no attention when I got my car serviced. Seattle has been a little better or maybe because I look so much older now that I am in my early 30's
I too have seen the silver SLR. I was amazed that they would bring one in to Hawaii without a predetermined buyer.

Got one more question for you guys...if the car is lowered on Renntech ELM (mine is) could I just set the right front to a lower number to make up for the difference? Or are the two settings for the front supposed to be the same (i.e. 3,3 up front or is 3,2 or 3,1 OK)??
Thanks...beautiful SL63 btw

Classic! They actually repaved the entire street believe it on not. Kapiolani too! Amazing! H1 went to ***** though. Holes every where. I actually memorized most of the left lane from H1-H2 merge to Punahou offramp and where all the holes are. That's pretty pathetic!

SDS is just an acronym for "Star Diagnotic System."

[quote=mchapparone;3362463]David, your car looks perfect in your sig pic...I would change a thing. It's gotta be lowered on STAR though right?
Car can be lowered via many methods. Most common is Links, Star, and ELM. Many will argue which is the best method. I was considering links from

I think its fine with that height, the car looks good without being too low which can actually end up being annoying ( speed bumps, etc). My c230 is so low that i can barely sit a 200 pound person in the passenger seat
