I found these on my phone. About 30 minutes after I got home, decided to take some pictures of the headlight condensation as well. Might I add the car was never parked in the rain, it was driven from the house to the dealership. Then started raining on me on the way home from the dealership.

Take the car back and tell them you want MB to exchange it for a new one. I can't imagine that'd be a problem for them. See what they say when you go that route. You may need to discuss this with MBUSA.
exactly. ask for a brand new one. this car seems to be a car that just isnt what it is supposed to be. if your having these troubles now, who knows what is going to happen later. ask for a brand new sls, clearly you like it otherwise you wouldnt have picked that car. dont get another type of car altogether.

New car or refund.

There's is some history to this vehicle not being shared with you. I think someone said it above - inspect VERY closely for past front half impact damage.

Sounds like one of their lot techs or someone ran into it with something or ran into something in the car. I would ask for a refund or swap it for a new one. Take it to an independent body shop and ask them to have a look to see what they think. It'll be easy for them to spot paint work/damage repair. Are you near any board sponsors?

Don't go to the media.

How much sympathy do you think he'll get with a story that reads "Man with $250K car having problems"...

Seriously though, this is outrageous. I'd bring is back to MB and demand a new one. Way too many issues with it.

There was a continuously returning proble with my mum's c-class the handbrake warning beep wouldn't stop so my mum asked them to service her car someone annoyed my mum my uncle works for Mercedes the lady that annoyed my mum now needs a new job but whenever I go with my mum to the MB dealership the service is always superb .
Bad to hear about your troubles my uncle took me for a drive in the sls prototype and the ride was perfect we were belting down the freeway with people yelling at us telling us to quieter down since it was midnight welcome to ts by the way
