On saturday went down to the Mercedes dealer and saw the SLS in flesh for the first time and it was a great looking piece of machinery. Since that day i have been wondering if i should trade in my 2008 997TT with it what do you think guys give me your honest opinion i have been loosing my sleep over this

depends on how long u plan on keeping the sls for, i think it will be a future classic, so if you plan on keeping it for a long time then yes..... but in a purely performance stand point then no, although since u have the ferrari then maybe.. tough choice

I think the SLS would make one of the most awesome daily drivers in the world. Go for it!

Why not? Really if the opportunity to own another really cool presents itself, go for it.

Yes, and I liked it. Got one here for sale, traded it in due to the wide sill being an issue. He had hip replacement last year, tough to get in and out of. Bought a CL 600 and a SL63 instead.

Not for nothing but I think the rear end of that car is horrible looking

However, good luck with whatever you decide.
