This is a discussion forum isn't it? Why would you stop the thread when that is what we're doing?

I thought someone may have taken it literally. I meant it more like "Don't MAKE me stop this car" when the kids are misbehaving in the back. The only action I can take on forums other than my own are spam eradication. At least without getting in trouble.

Like Justinwrock I have a SL600 and forget about it, you don't want to taste the forbidden fruit, you'll never look at a 500 the same.

Yeah I know it's heavy and so not much faster, but come on the torque is unbelievable and when you step on the gas, the front of the car lifts up and the dog jumps into the fight.

The adjustable shocks and suspension are great, and besides the initial computer problem (it was replaced by dealer, gratis) there have been no problems and I put 10k miles on it in 6 months, using it as my daily driver. Also per SL buyer's guide, the 600 is no less reliable than the 300/500 and alot more rare.
