He may also be the CEO of Comcast or one of the top execs.

yes I agree. For some reason most Benz cars look better in black. As for the price tag of 450 or even at some dealers almost 600 grand . I'd say "forget you" and put in a order either for a SL65 AMG or new M5 with the V-10 with 500 hp

<- still remember how mad Snider was after the Leafs won game 6 of the eastern quarter-final against the Flyers in the 1999 playoffs.

He now owns a SLR? boooooooo.

I was in MB of tampa when my grandpa went to look at the E55 AMG. They had the SLR for a sticker of $800,000. That seemed really high to me. Do they really go for that much???

McClaren and MB are splitting up after this car, I think... so the price will rise...you know how they do it...
