The SLS on the other hand is a real Jekyl and Hyde. From some angles it looks amazing and from others it looks like the bi-product of a Bread box that has had sex with a Canal Boat.

Now back to the colors.

Would Red with Beige be to cliche??? Perhaps a Matte Black or Grey, however they could quite easily be the flavour of the month this year and not the next.
Ohhhhhhhhh Now here's an important peice of the equation- I didn't know you 'just weren't in love with the looks'. Hmmm puts an interesting twist.

How do you feel about the SLS?

Have you driven Either car?? - also, how long do you typically keep your cars or, better yet- how long do you PLAN on keeping your next car??


-need more info before I offer more advice.

The 599 for sure, although the SLS is starting to grow on me.
