Pics of the new GL

Finally got a chance to take some pics. I had the front windows tinted 35% and the moonroof tinted limo black yesterday. I also had a chance to put a couple of coats of Pinnacle Soverign on it. This car has the new Mercedes Ceram-coat nano technology paint that is supposed to be super scratch resistant. It has incredible depth and gloss to it. I have never seen anything like it!

You can see the metal flakes in the paint in one of the photos.

Thanks, it worked but I wish the board did it automatically like some others running the same software!

Nice UAV (Urban Asualt Vehicle) The new nano paint is everything they say it is. You will find out as you continue washing and it will look great with little or no waxing.

That's with the 3rd row folded down. When you put it up, there is not a whole lot of space but definitely more than a Tahoe or Expedition. Still not enough cargo capacity for a family of 5. I looked into getting the MB roof carrier sysem for it but I hear it's pretty noisy. The only other option is a lame hitch mounted platform for long trips.
