I went to the knauz dealership last weekend, and they have this high class shop behind it. They had all kinds of old panozs bmw bikes etc. The one car that caught my eye was a brand new sl55 amg in red with some nice ass wheels and a silver painted grille. Best looking mercedes to date period.

Then you're saying you want the SLK55 AMG w/ 6 Speed Gearbox like it'll have when it's released here?

I'd go SL55 AMG cuz its so sweet looking and I don't need 4 seats. It may be a pig, handling wise but ~496hp will put a grin on my face at every stop light.

CL65 or whatever new AMG version engine they put in the new E class. rumors are itll be a detuned version of the CL65 12cyl engine. but that wont be for a few years i guess. so itll be CL65. i drove the 55 and it owns me, easily my dream car (til the 65 is out and under $150k)
