Well I have either arrived or the MB computer messed up on demographics...:confused:

Received this invitation with some people to call at MBUSA and a registration # to test drive the SLR in Miami in early October. Limited to just 32 people! Would love to do it but not in Miami...maybe if it was in Las Vegas. Oh well, I guess I'll just order one without test driving it...if it has some bugs I am sure they will fix them...:D

how far is Miami from Las Vegas?

I would guess about 3000 or so...about a four day drive. I drove to the east coast in May (South Carolina) and it was 2700 miles.

hmm, 3000 miles (i guess) is quite a lot, but i think it's worth it. I would drive to Miami if i had all that time...

BTW, can't you go by plane?

I could fly but why fly when you have a S550 to enjoy...:)

Seriously...just to drive a super MB would not be worth it to me...if it was local I would jump on it.

hehe.....I got that invitation too by email. I'm in Canada, so it's even further away for me. Not worth the money and the travel time, IMO. I don't think I'm in the right demographic either......I just have a C-class.

Jack, you are one lucky Mercedes-Benz driver. First, you have a gorgeous W221 S550 - and now, you get an invitation to drive an SLR!? :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

If you do, we expect some HQ shots from you!

Even to drive as SLR is not worth a 3000 mile trip...drive or fly...:)
