Default Introduction

Hello All. I will pick up my first MB this weekend. A Black on Black 2007 SLK55 AMG with the premium 3 package. I expect I will have many questions for you folks in the near future regarding care, tuning, etc. I am looking forward to being a part of the forum.

Best,
David
Scottsdale, AZ

Well, my Lexus GS is black on black. While it gets very hot in the summer, I have a garage at home and the office. So I am less affected than others. I actually bought two MB's on Monday. The wife gets a 2007 ML350. On that one, we got a new after-market tint that blocks over 90% of UV. They claim interior temperatures of 20 degrees cooler than without the tint. Tinting is legal in AZ, as long as it is not "limo tint" and you can see in to some degree. Thanks for the welcome!
