    My new "daily driver" finally showed up! It's awesome! SL 65 to replace my SL 55 that went bye bye about 6 weeks ago! I love 12 cylinders!! And the horsepower- well I'm not a size queen-but I can be impressed!!!

    She's a beauty Christine. Sort of a younger kid sister to the SLR?

    Pretty close to reality actually. At 2500RPM with the turbos on line......................ya baby. The SLR has more nads out of the hole, after that I would have to say (seat of the pants) I'd call it a draw. (above that 60 to 90 range)

    Absolutely fantastic !
    I really like those wheels. Look at the accent points that pull the whole design together; the wheel spokes mimic the horizontal vents and hood grill and it all flows so very nicely.

    Congratulations on a stunning new ride!
    Is Michael learning to be a good passenger?
    :)

    thank you everyone for well wishes!! I'll bring it to C&C Gig Harbor.


    One regret---I did not get it through Roy. Really would have loved him to write a check to my fave charity! LOL

    Christie, I know you like 12 cylinders..... listen carefully to the wind..... that is Roy calling "Come to the darkside..... 12 Glorious cylinders await you there!". :)

    I've always wanted to buy one of those for my wife... that way she gets the hardtop convertible she wants- and I get the V12 Biturbo I want :)

    Congrats on the car!

    Unless you just graduated HS, I'd loose the tassel. Reminds me of something an 18 yr old would have in her Jetta; not exactly what one expects to see in a car like that.

    It's stunning btw, congrats!
