Yesterday, took the SLK for a stroll in the neighborhood for the first time since i picked it up.
residential side roads are still covered in snow, but most main roads are dry, and i've been itching to go for a drive for a while. and also i have to check the balance of the front tire.
got home, took dog for a walk, put the top down, with wife in the car for the first time ever, and went for a drive.
it was balmy +3 degree, and airscarp on with heated seats on, it wasn't really cold in the car even with the top down.
the car still feels very heavy to me, but yesterday was the first time i floored the thing.
it sounds like a gurgling chewbacca. made me laugh out loud.
wife noted that the car feels heavy and solid once you are inside, even though it looks tiny from outside.
the headlights are very dim though. i don't think it's HID, and even HIDs pale in comparison to LED lights on the lexus..
