    that is a good color combo.

    the SLS is growing on me, still not entirely cool with the front end but overall a well proportioned car.

    Very nice. Those particular years of Merc will last you forever!

    I hope Mercedes gains back that rep. They're working on it, now number four on J.D.s quality rating.

    I think this car is going to end up being a big hit. It received a lot or criticism when press photos were released, but after seeing "in-person" pictures, It really, really looks beautiful. Especially the back, when I saw it in the press photos I thought it was horrible, but in your pics, it looks wonderful.

    Also, another member on here test drove one and said it was extraordinary, he ended up ordered one. Its got a lot of great innovations (DCT speed shift, Air brake etc.)

    I only thing I don't like about it is the idea that its styling is based on the Gullwing. I don't really like the whole retro idea on any car. Just seems like a way for American car makers to make some bucks on a style because all the appreciative old-timers love it. Cars are about moving forward and evolution in technology, not going back and reusing. I guess its okay though because it's strictly cosmetic.

    Actually, I'd love to have one of those!

    My grandparents, then my parents, owned the same 1973 450 SE. I was really sad when my dad finally got rid of it in 2001.

    Man, you guys both had the 450! Very cool!

    However I can't complain, this thing cruises amazingly. However I rarely drive it. I think Ive literally clocked 100 actual miles on it MAX since 2009!!!! It's just kind of a center around here :D

    Need to drive it more!!!
