The Million Dollar Baby



Brought to you by: 118952.

This video was shot live from the 2007 Las Vegas SEMA convention. You might want to watch this, if for no other reason than you've probably never seen anything like it! A Mercedes SL600, and we are talking the entire car, is covered in German crystals. Get out the polarized glasses if this car ever sees daylight! And, not only is the outside of the car decorated down to the exhaust and rims, but the inside is accented in white fur. Wonder if Paul Dalton (the British car wash specialist) will be consulted should they ever want to take the crystals off the SL600?

Here are a few facts about what lies beneath the crystals. The SL600 is available as a V12. It is derived from the SL series which has different engine choices. The current base price of the SL600 is $134,025 and the SL550 is $96,125. The 6th generation car currently does not have a release date. It’s coming out as a 2009 model but only a few spy shots have been revealed. An official production date currently does not exist.

SEMA Teaser

As promised here is a glimpse of some of the fun that the crew at StreetFire.net is having during SEMA week 2007. The fine gents at Dodge and Jaguar were nice enough to let us borrow a brand new 2008 Dodge Viper and 2008 Jaguar XKR to take on our journey to Sin City.

I know it's hard work but someone has to do it. Check back frequently as we will be adding new footage as we get it.

SEMA 2007

Some people look forward to holidays such as Christmas or even their birthday but in the wonderful world of cars the entire year builds up to one week, SEMA.

And once again the StreetFire team will be attending this glorious event so that we can bring our loyal and glorious users coverage they might not otherwise see. As I sit here at the airport terminal trying to tune out the many annoying sounds of the airport (Dancing With the Stars on the TV, the announcer on the intercom trying to find some lost passenger, and the couple next to me having a conversation in a language I can't understand) I know that in 1 short hour my plane will land in Sin City and I will be in automotive heaven for the next 4 days.

With that I would like to encourage everyone to check back DAILY and HOURLY as we will be uploading videos not days, but HOURS after getting the coverage. We are dedicated to bringing you the best SEMA coverage so check back frequently.
