Well, I have a buddy that is getting 1 of 3 headed to Canada....I think they are most likely 3 of the 175 US spec cars...

Interesting...I've been talking to Bob at Renntech...Here is a dyno of a stocker versus a tuned one. Look at that TORQUE!

Of course 700 ft lbs at the wheels bone stock isn't too shabby....for now, anyway.

My pleasure. I figured everyone has seen the usual magazine shots.

Great price if it's hasn't been driven. My dealer just got a Steel Grey one in, and while the silvers all look cool, this particular model really has to be black, IMO.

The white one also looks hot, never thought it would until I seen it in person.

Too bad that a dealership is already whoring one out, sure consumers might think it is a great deal, but when you buy it and wonder why resale takes a plunge... just a vicious cycle and a shame. Those dealers should not be allowed to sell them. MB dealerships that show no value in the product that sell should just go bye bye... I wish MB would do what GM did with the dealerships and do a purge

Man... every time I get a reply to this tread it make me want to reconsider my job and try to find out how to make the big $$. I would love to one day have the ability to wake up, walk down a long set of stairs, open my garage door, and see one of these sitting there. It there was a way I could get my wife to sell the house and just live in this car... man... I would do it. haha

This one was used by MB to show the press, etc. and has about 2000 miles on it.

This car is incredible! It looks like it has a V-band on the stock exhaust.

Thanks! But I'd rather hear more about your ride! An LS powered 944? How awesome is that???

As you can see....I'm a big Vette fan too.
