Snap -exactly the spec I've ordered.Obviously a man of good taste (and plenty of rap music).

Please get some photos up and let us have your initial thoughts.What are you coming to it from?

I really hope it all goes well for you.

INNNSSSAAANNNEEEE oh my Jesus!! This thing is superb. Only done 50 miles (now 80 on clock) and I am smiling like crazy!! The noise, the performance, the comfort, the technology and of course the turning heads when the equivalent of the "Horseman of the Apocolypse" coming roaring down their road!!!!!!

Photos to follow but I'm currently toasting the new car with a glass of sav!!!

Great stuff - you sound pleased with it.I can't wait to get mine.

Are you pleased with the magnetite and black wheels combo?I saw one with this combo in Bristol and it really suits the car in my opinion even though the wheels are seemingly a matt finish.

What were you told about running in,I'm sure I read somewhere that for the first 1000 miles you should take it easy with no all out acceleration,downshifts etc.

Combination works very well and to quote the sales manager - "white is pretty but you don't want a pretty car. This just looks aggressive which is what an AMG should be"

Defn magnetite black and not the obsidian as you don't get the grey lie contrast which is fantastic.

I'll defn get some pics up ASAP. As for running in - sticker in the window talking about it and I'll be gentle for a bit but these are bench run in as well do I don't know how nuch to take on it. Also has something called a warranty :-)

Hahah - looked out the window this morning - sun shining: bike ride or power drive......
