That was one of my favorite 211's as well. His car was the reason I got the SL5's, too Except, I went brushed. He still has the car, just not active on the forums.

Sale pending on my comp orange cobra, holding thumbs

If it goes through my E55 will be off the market for good.

Do you guys think I should go without the trunk lid spoiler for a cleaner look?
