Do they offer a Limo version???????? Just being stupid. BMW is getting bigger and Mercedes is getting progressively smaller, whats up with that. It is SHO is PURTY though.

THere's a manual option, just not on the AMG version. If the quality and reliability are up as is rumored, I'd consider it. I like the idea of a folding hard top but the previous SLK was just waaay too girly for me.

FOlding hard top rocks, but need the trunk room. Don't know how those guys with huge speakers and subs on their trunk lug things around. Oh wait.. they don't. I heard the AMG version is automatic, cuz of how much torque it produces. DOn't know if there's any thruth to that though. Especially considering, top fuel cars are manual. Don't think there's anything else that has more torque than those things.

I don't know about you guys, but I'd be pissed if I was an SLR owner, it looks exactly like it.

$45k? Ouch, I rather put that towards the next M3.

Correction: M4 (unless you're going for a sedan )

What SLR are you looking at. There is no comparison.
