SL-Class (R232) [Official] All-new Mercedes-AMG SL (R232)

The All-new Mercedes-AMG SL (R232)

Almost 70 years ago, a sports car launched in Stuttgart immediately became a legend. The vision of expanding the potential of the Mercedes-Benz brand through motor racing successes produced the first SL as a result - a road-going racing sports car. Shortly after its début in 1952, the 300 SL (internal designation W 194) reaped success after success on the race tracks of the world. In its first year, it achieved, among other things, a spectacular one-two victory in the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans and even took the first four places in the Nürburgring Grand Jubilee Prize for sports cars. Its successes quickly make the SL a legend.

The SL and AMG GT interior quality is bang on par if not better than most cars at their price point. At least here in the Australian market. IMO It's the lack of customisation across the SL and GT range, in some pretty big global markets, that one of the issue when it comes to the interior finishes.

I was going to say that the 232 SL55 and 63 I sat in and drove were surprisingly solid with good materials, much better than the C/GLB/GLC-Class loaners I receive. The SL definitely deserves a multitude of customization options, but with sales not meeting expectations, Mercedes probably feels it is not worth it.

It seems to be a great car, but overpriced, and in a dying segment. Then again it’s prolly a confusing car for a lot of buyers.

It's actually a fantastic product poorly positioned. Also, as stunning as the overall car is, the A class face does not help in the prestige stakes.

Hopefully Mercedes understands the shuffling around they need to do with the SL and GT come FL.
