[GBOY]

INSANE!!!

 

[Bruce]

Holy...

This vehicle seriously has that "get-the-****-out-of-the-way" look.
And though I've always hated the term, I've got say it: hot damn.

 

[Mr. Mercedes]

WOW!

 

[GBOY]

WHOA!!!

 

[NarutoRamen]

Now THIS is what I call F__KING AWESOME!!!!

Whooooaaaa. I have never seen prettier automotive photography. To the SLR, i guess it goes; "Le roi est mort! Vive le roi!"
This car has a no-nonsense look about it. No hint of porkiness anywhere--it looks ready to beat someone up. If I could compare it to a human being, 300's Leonidas comes to mind. This to the normal SL is like Gerald Buttler's Leonidas to Brad Pitt's Troy--one looks like it could actually rip a Persian apart, the other does not convince.

I am impressed at the lack of seams at the former parts of the top. There is no hint anywhere that this is a re-do of a convertible.

I guess Porche is sending out the call: "Enemy at the gates! Close the damn gates!"

 

[bum-man]

Giggidi gig!...ohh...I think I just pooped a little.




Looks better than expected for me.

 

[Yaz]

GOD DAMN!

Now this is a way for the 65 engine to go out with a bang!

 

[SDNR]

^ It aint pretty ....the only word to describe it is BRUTAL. 670HP ...and it has the looks to match!

 

[Monster]

This is going straight into my top 10 must have cars ever. I don't care if it has a heavy V12 and an ancient 5 speed auto, just look at it!!! I have never imagined it will look so good, stunning effort from MB/AMG.

 

[Merc1]

WOW.............I told Luw I couldn't wait any longer and I got my wish!

Absolutely stunning......Its basically a DTM version of the SL. Yikes!!!

Mercedes-Benz reveals the new SL65 AMG Black Series

Mercedes-Benz and its in-house tuner AMG have finally released first details and images for its extreme Black Series edition of the new SL65 AMG. Priced from $320,000 in the U.S. and €309,000 in Europe, the new Mercedes supercar comes with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 developing 661hp (493kW) at 5,400 rpm and a heady 738 lb-ft (1,000Nm) of torque. This is 20hp (15kW) up on Mercedes’ own SLR McLaren 722 edition supercar.

Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a five-speed automatic gearbox equipped with AMG’s new speedshift program, which is able to shift gears in just 250 milliseconds, and the all-important sprint to 60mph takes just 3.9 seconds and top speed is limited to 199mph because of the gearbox’s limitations.
This acceleration is aided by an extensive weight reduction program which sees the car shed some 250kg over the standard SL65. The final kerb weight of the new Black Series is 1,870kg, brought about by extensive use of carbon-fiber, a fixed roof, a stripped interior and more aluminum components instead of steel ones.
Other features include a new adjustable suspension set-up, a wider track, larger brakes, a movable rear spoiler and a lower hood.
The new car will make its world debut at October’s Paris Motor Show before going on sale early next year.
