WOW!!!

That car looks like it means business. Those are some serious fender flares.

I have never been a fan of of the interior look of these recent model-year SL's, maybe because of the wood, but this one has a totally different look inside. I like it!

The seats look like a big improvement over previous Black Series seats.

Is the spoiler always extended? The posts make it look that way.
