Off R170 Topic, On R171 Topic

My little sister bought a launch edition R171... Pewter on Mocha Nappa.

I'm not too sure I like the Launch Edition wheels, though I like the bodywork (front splitters, especially).

Best of all, she didn't pay a cent over MSRP...(though I don't know who would for an SLK, R171 or not).

...will post pics when the rain stops in SoCal...

I test drove the launch edition, it's a nice looking car. But I bet by the time you get around to taking pictures, those splitters are scratched.

The wheels[?] Not bad, not great either.
