Very nice Paul. Now go put some black wheels on it.
I thought about it but the wheels I'm gonna buy for it will be for snow tires! :bang:

looks nice but would have bought an 05 GT myself.
You obviously never driven an AMG, increadible, all the doo-dahs are unimaginable, air vents in the headrest, sound system is simply amazing, navigation with steering wheel controls, you can also display several parameters of the car, eg g forces, both later and accel/braking, etc, etc.

I'll post some more pics tomorow of the inside and stuff. :cheers:

We test drove a bunch of cars today, Porsches Carrera S and Boxster S, C6 Corvette Z51, and a used 03 viper SRT-10. I wanted to the viper but it was after we drove the Benz and she was hooked, the fact that the viper is one of the most unrefined cars I ever drove didnt help much, no power seats, no nothing on the inside crap for radio, BUT I loved the power wayyyyyy too much but the tranny shifts as good as a tractor and the wheel hop about made my teeth come loose. The porsches were crap, pure and simple, just a name to back it up and the vette was nice but they had none in black! :(

Very nice Paul! Watch out for rocks on the freeway.

Gonna try to save up for when I go to the land of diamonds in January (South Africa) so that I can buy a big fat one (about 4ct) for the price you'd but a 1.5-2.0ct here!

Do you need another wife? Nevermind that it's illegal... :shrug: :D

I'm kidding I'm kidding. But congrats on the car and goodluck on the diamond hunt! She's lucky!

Are you going there just for the diamond? If so I would think if you factored in airfare it would be about the same price. Now you have me thinking, I may just fly down there for the big ring when that day comes.

"Honey, I went all the way to south africa just to bring you this and get it way cheaper."

Have you priced a 3-4ct brilliant in the US??? The airfare is ~$1500 so if you think you can find a 3-4ct for $3000, then I have a statue in NY I can sell you. But I'm not going to go there just for that, she's originally from Cape Town and all her family lives there plus they have pretty good contacts.
