None better, except for maybe the SL55
Driving doesn't get any better than this. The new SL550 is markedly better than the car it replaced (the SL500). I've owned 2003, and 2005, SLs and the 2007 is a much better performing car
A grown-up toy
The power of 510 ponies cannot be beat when you're behind a truck, along side a slow poke, or just dying to feel the wind in your hair. Tons of truck space, all the bells, tolerable gas mileage, and fun, fun fun. Just wish people didn't park right next to me all the time!

Stealth Race Car
The 07 SL 55 has subtle but great improvements over prior model years. The paddle shift is much better than the button set up on the prior AMG. The ride with 19 inch rims is very smooth for a performance car. Best of all it is somewhat stealth, at least here in So Cal as there are so many SL's running around. My only disappointment is that the navi is still somewhat behind that of Acura and the sound system is good but not great. In a $130 K car you would think the sound system would be as good as the exhaust "sound". All in all this is a dream car and feel lucky to own one. Prior car was an 02 E55 and still love it but not a much as this SL 55 Duh!!
2007 Some good- some bad
I previously owned a 2005 SL500. The car is indeed more powerful reflecting the increase in horsepower. I actually do not like some of the minor interior changes. For instance, I do not like the change in the hard-top controller handle-switch. The previous switch had a red light incorporated in it to indicate when the up or down function was complete. The current switch no longer has this light indicator, and now you must turn your head around to look. I cannot figure out if the current model has voice control or not, while the '05 model voice control was standard. I do like the bluetooth module allowing use of your personal phone.
2007SL550
Traded 2005 SL500 on 2007 SL550. As nice as the '05 was, the new '07 is more powerful, quieter' and has a much better steering feel.
