I really liked the full 3rd row, even better than then GL, so that's why the R.

I hope you got a crazy deal if it wasn't a special order. I don't know ANYONE but you that would buy an R-anything... and even less an R63.

I'm sure it fills you fleat pretty well though. Congratz for that.
Wondering who's going to be driving it? And... please debadge and rape some 360's and tell me how it feels... lol

congratz again

Even with the badging, no one will know what it is -- can't wait to floor it next to an M3 or something.

Any specific shots you want to see? It has the multimedia rear seat system, which is really nice -- I can shoot that.

My wife asked, "why does it sound strange (compared to her prior ride) at idle" -- i told her, that's the engine asking us to play!

Starting that thing up in the morning is a nice wake up --- it grumbles and barks to life!
