Smile My new Mars RED SL55 | lowered with Radenergie R10 | PICS

My previous cars throughout the years...





And the new addition:



Pretty low mileage at 26K miles:




I put the lowering module and wheels immediately as soon as it got delivered

More mods planned!

That supercharged V8 engine is an animal ... I love the hallmark AMG roar. Enjoy! Nice rides!

Pre-facelift SL has aged well. I like it more than the latest model. Red with those wheels is a nice combo.

I don't mean to throw this thread in a different direction but how does this SL55 compare to say the SL63 2011?

So do you not have the m5 anymore?
Which one has been your all time favorite and why?
Would be really cool to see some reviews since you've had a real taste of some of the best cars out there!

I've never driven an SL63 though.

If I may suggest a mod, 55techmotors makes a sick grill for the SL I had it in my SL500 and it transformed the car
I think the single slat grille looks better in a dark car.
I'm buying a spare grille and I'll paint the slats really dark color but not black.

The M5 is a nice car but recently it has been in the shop too much.
And fixing things are not cheap, just see the top-left receipt here, example for an smg pump:
