Great looking gentleman's sports car

Car meets my needs as a third vehicle. Used on nice days and is a pleasure to drive. Not extremely fuel efficient but I didn't buy it for that. When the weather permits and trip is right, there is no better car to drive.

Absolutely perfect car

I own 2011 SL 550 for just over 1 year right now. I put total of 10,000 miles in it and I am falling in love with this car more and more every day. It took me a while to understand and feel the benefit of ABC (Active Body Control). Driving any other car without ABC now annoys me. I have 2 complaints and they are very small: In Cruising mode downshifting from 4th gear to the 3rd gear is somewhat delayed/sluggish when driving uphill. Voice command system is 95% accurate on addresses and about 75% accurate on the names in the address book (I do have a bit of a foreign accent too).
