I like the rims on the SRT-6 better, and love the price of an SRT-6 a whole bunch better than the SLS.

BTW, any idea what the sticker would be on that car...???

I may get blasted for this, but... I think it looks alot like the third generation RX-7, with an ACURA TL rearend.

I don't personally see the resemblance, a few classic mercedes design cues here and there that match, but the overall shape doesnt exactly resemble each other , again imho.

ROFL @ RX-7 remark, yes!

Well it does have four rubber tires, an obvious front end, rear end and a inclosed area surrounded by glass.
Most importantly why wouldn't it resemble a two seater sport coupe from the same company?

The top does not go down and cost $200K. I will keep my Black Srt6 Roadster. I cannot afford the SLS anyway. Gary

Being a diver, as in Scuba Diver; It looks a lot like a Starfish to me. A very beautiful creature, but IMHO doesn't look the best on the XF. Just me and my thoughts folks. But, also I haven't seen a XF that I didn't like, regardless of what rims were installed. Well, there was that thread about a XF parked in front of a Walmart w/ the airbrushed black hooker w/ phone # that still leaves me dumbfounded and wondering where the world went wrong.

I have the Aero in the driveway.... now if someone would just give me the SLS to park next to it....

I will say that long hood reminds me of the Small Peter Griffin episode of Family Guy.

Speaking of wheels, I REALLY like the 10-spoke wheel on the SLS in the last photo.

I found a reasonable impostor, the TSW Interlagos



It's nine spokes, but who's counting?

I'm counting, so if it had more than ten I would have to use my toes.
