Yeah, MAYBE, I am saving for the future, So I can open businesses and import several Trademarks etc, and If I have money Left I might get my self a 997 Turbo S when they release it in 4-5years or get an ML63.

The green filters are great, I run K&N's but the greens have a great reputation...you should have noticed a deeper exhaust note, makes the motor sound just a bit throatier. Nice to see more AMG's on the board, hot ride!!

Mixed Creation is infamous around these parts
Oh yeah, thanks for the advice Pilone, and MeanMachine. I actually went and test drove the SLK 350 w/ AMG package. I am now relatively close to going out and buying it. The car was great, even rather surprised on the handling. I thought it would be much looser than what it was. The power was nice, definitely felt quick, and the pimp factor with the hardtop conv. is just awesome. But the only thing stopping me is that I really want to get a 06 Raven R6 for the track.... damn decisions....

I'm happy to help you make a decision...
