Seriously these photos are more than good enough to be used as official MB brochure.

I was thinking about the same.

What is that place by the way?
looks like a giant parking with a wierd little house on the side

It is on the roof of a 4 story parking garage at a local casino. The "little house" covers the stairwell. It also provides some architectural consistency to the exterior of the building.

Video of the GL550

I pulled out the old videocam today and shot some footage of the GL in the driveway. I picked up some wind noise and could not find out how to cut the track in Apples iMovie. So I laid a music track over it but you can still hear the wind in some area. Runs a little over 2 minutes. May be slow loading for some.

So then you like the GL's styling Rob?

Previous photos have never done the GL justice IMO. So judging by these superb pictures, I can only imagine how stunning your car is in person. Thanks Jack.

It looks great in the pictures but it is truly great in person also. I am very pleased with the quality of the truck and it is a true Mercedes Benz in ride and performance.

^^Well, if you go way way back to when this model was first tipped to be the G class' replacement, I was one of the very few around here who liked it.

It is funny how the haters changed their tune so quickly.

So you've finally got the GL Jack, congrats!

The car looks great, and your photography skills are making it look better!

How do you keep it looking so clean for all your shots, do you take a bucket and sponge along to give it a quick clean?

Thanks Dude...yeah, finally got one and this model is the pits! Great vehicle and a true MB.

Since I sleep with the car I just take a shower in the morning and include the car in the shower stall... The only real problem here is some dust and since we don't get much rain, the car really never gets dirty, dirty. I use a California Duster a couple of times a week and that is enough to keep it looking like new. The famous MB brake dust on the front rims require me to get it washed about every two weeks or so.

The car has a royal presence!

PS. I just noticed the exhaust tips! They are fantastic!

Thanks...I agree on the tips Giannis...a unique look and something you don't see. The AMG rims are really stunning in real life also.

Stunning pictures, Jack!

I think you should upgrade to a DSLR camera with your photographic talent!
