price- they wanted a lot more for the 07- the engine aside, I think I prefer the wheels and tail lights of the 06.

I guess Mercedes is offering HUGE incentives to dealers to help move unsold '05 and '06 models.

I've heard of $20k discounts on the '06 SL, and $26k discounts on new '05 SL cars. Is that your experience??

Here's one bargain.
Not quite $67k, but a $15k discount on a new 2006

Regarding price, Herb Chambers made me swear to secrecy! But it was a very good deal.

I can only imagine what kind of deals can be offered for the 500's following the release of the 550's. Let's play the hypothetical scenario that the car was bought for $67K. One can Kleemann tune the vehicle all for less than the cost of a new SL550.
