Drives: 2006 SL 500
As I said, I'm not looking for perfection just excellance and I believe thats what you guys are saying I'll get for the most part. I went to test drive the SL500 but to get to the lot where the black/berry red model was they had me drive a SL600 to get there. Wow, what an engine - I felt like this 4000 lb. plus car was my old 422 lb. 1972 Kawasaki 750. The SL500 had plenty of power for me but that SL600 had me thinking for a moment. I like the interior of the SL - its fit and finish seem fine. I'm not educated enough in the finer things in the automobile world yet such as matching leather and wood but I understand your drift in terms of a downward move in material quality. Thanks again.
