That thing must sound orgasmic with the long-tube headers and exhaust.

That's one way to put it

I have a pretty stout Mach 1 and it made me want to go hide in the corner...and it wasn't even moving!!!!

knew all along when i got rid of the M6, that i couldnt help but to find something to replace it. therefore, i dont think i could've done any better in finding something with the performance, looks, price, and exclusivity of the Black Series. some would argue the GT-R/ Z06 could go along with that but i didnt have the same feelings when looking at the either of those cars. both are GREAT cars, but i always liked being different and trying to have something you wouldnt see everyday.
the BS definitely sounds like a muscle car, especially when you lift off the gas and it gives up that little gurgle, bubling sound. the power it has is crazy, when its spinning the tires at 45-50mph when you try and punch it in 2nd gear. even though it spins the tires, you can pretty much stand on it and the car will straighten itself out after a while. the steering wheel feels awesome and it looks like a little formula 1 steering wheel w/o all the buttons of course. the shifting is one thing i will have to get use to. where in the BS, its better to hold the downshift button and the car will select the best gear for you. compared to when i had my M6 and you could flick through the gears up or down with no problems. all in all it seems like mercedes did a great job on this one.
so it looks like being patient and waiting for the right car really worked out this time and i was blessed enough to be able to get it and deal with people i never met to make the transaction go so smoothly.

Beautiful. I'm looking into a 997 TT but the black series is awesome of much more rare. I looked at a black one and it did not do it for me. If it was white I probably would have bought it.

Yours looks perfect!!

I've been considering a black series as prices are now close to $50K below MSRP. However, I really need the back seats.

White is by far the best color for that car (IMO), nice choice.
