SL's are more GT cars than sports cars. Remember with Mercedes "sport" is all relative. As a result they ride quite well.
The new SL's are quite porky, they are 4k+ pound cars...they weigh more than my old W126! There fantastic GT cars though, I would imagin one of the better cars to blast across the country in.

Yep, all of the time I've spent in SLs so far has been quite enjoyable wether it was long or short. A cross country trip in an SL600 sounds like a blast to me.

I went out to start the SL for its first spring drive, it sputtered popped hissed and died. I think the plugs fouled from letting it idle too much this winter.

Looks clean and pampered. I can't even see any rock dings on the front end
![]() The headlights though...wasn't there an option for Bi-Xenon lights that looked just as good off as on? (Somthing you might want to look into upgrading)
