After reading how the SL55 AMG beat out the Lamborghini Murciélago from 0 - 180 mph....

I hope two things:

1. That it is that fast.

2. That they get rid of the tomatoe colored leather. It is very much so not a Merc color.

It goes for 124k which is less than half the

I can't imagine that car being $124k, I'll bet it will come in at $110k. Its a very hot car.

I saw a C32 at a dealer the other day and I thought that was badass. But that thing is sick.
