I'd just like to share my happiness with everyone here.... after waiting for 6 months... I finally brought home my new baby.... an 07 SLK55 AMG

I think whatever the Benz menu system is called, it's worse than iDrive. Took me 20mins to set clocks in the car... the worse part was to synchronize the analog clock with the digital one in the instrument cluster and then with the Command system. I had to read the manual to get it right.
My wife in the 545 did pass me on the way home from the dealer. . so there's the kill.

My friend's slk55 looks very different from yours.
The lights on his car looks a lot more detailed almost robotic. front intake is a lot bigger too. maybe it's because his was an 06? congrats anyway.~
