Nice read as always

You got me worried about the handling? u didn't try the sport setting Chris right?

You're right Rob, we're one of those people.

I'm honestly waiting to see this car quite eagerly... If a V6 can produce such decent numbers, there is really good reason to downgrade (for environmental reasons). Besides, my dad is getting on with age, he would probably prefer a boulevard cruiser than a outright sports car (our Sport GT).

Great review wimmer, nice photos to..

So, what makes me think the SL350 isn`t equipped with ABC suspension, a faster steering rack and quicker breakes like it`s bigger brother the SL550.

I`ll bet the 550 is more driver oriented.., whats your opinion on that..

I didn't think of that when driving the car but I am pretty sure there must have been a button that would have changed the mode of the suspension.

That said, the car didn't handle badly but I was simply expecting more based on the positive reviews.

Thanks.


Could be, but I suspect I missed a button that would change the mode of the suspension.

I think the SL350 might actually handle a bit better than the SL550 because of less weight upfront (lighter V6 compared to the V8).

The SL350 doesn't come with ABC as standard right? i think it'd help a lot if it equipped with it

Right! It is an extra - costs 4.000 €!!

Guess that solves the problem. No ABC, no handling.

Hi,

Will post them ASAP. My internet is a bit slow at the moment and even though your files are small in size I can't seem to download them right now. Will try to in a few hours.
