SL600
C'mon...if it's designed correctly, you could make it a lounge/garage. I'd have speakers and a plasma/lcd set up with a kegerator and an endless amount of vodka and Red Bull. 
On top of that, I'd also have a custom car wash area set up complete with a foam gun and a blower. I'm getting excited just thinking about it!

First of all thanks for the comments...

I actually saw the car in Ebay with a "Buy it now" price of $88k. It had 4900 miles at the time and it was local (about 50miles), so I said what could hurt if just "looked" at it...
! I emailed the owner and I got a call back from the MB salesperson that sold him the car...the owner seemed to have a deal for another MB and the SL65 sale was involved somehow...
I went to the MB dealership and looked at it and the MB salesperson said that the reserve hasn't been met (the bids were still @ 70K) but the seller would settle for the reserve price...$79K. You could imagine all the images floating in my head at that point...so I jumped at the deal.

After she picked up her jaw, she loves it! Once she sat in it and hit the keyless go button and popped the top down...she couldn't stop smiling.

I've got DirecTV hooked up in the garage (mainly for NFL ticket). I hang out there doing a lot of detailing and smoking cigars during football games with my fantasy league geeks. I already had a spare refrigerator there for beer so a TV, couple fold out lounge chairs, surround sound, PS3 and a Wii was not a stretch. My next job is cleaning the garage up and sealing the concrete floor.
Aleksander1099:
I will...the Beast is getting detailed. I'll be making the switch tomorrow (the SL65 will get detailed and tinted) and have both cars tomorrow night.
Vic55:
Excellent!! Did you go private party or dealer? Care to share your great deal in regards to price?
I too would like to know what kind of deal you got. If you don't feel comfortable posting it here, would you please PM me

What'd your wife say?
Lady_AMG:
Do you have cable in your garage? If I could build a custom garage, I'd spend a lot of weekends there with my cars, hehe.

Damn ! do you golf much?

Very nice! Been a nig fan of those SL's. I would buy one tomorrow if my wife would let me.
Mod list sounds nice. Just wanted to comment I recently installed the very same looking flat hoot badge on my E. I might take some pics today to update my album. The Black and silver AMG badge really sets off the front end just right
Congrats again!
