To stick it to Porsche, Jag and BMW, Mercedes announced it will have two new vehicles coming out soon.

Even while they’re standing still, it’s obvious that the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and 300SL, with their long hoods, short decks and gullwing doors, share some attractive genes. The video after the jump makes it clear that they also have similar voices.

Driving a Mercedes-Benz represents success and accomplishment, but even the richest people get irked at high insurance rates. If you are privileged enough to own a 2014 Mercedes-Benz CL550 4MATIC, SLS AMG GT, G63 […] More »

Now here’s a color I haven’t seen yet. The first SLS AMG Black series I saw was this luminous yellow one at the LA Auto Show. I though it looked good there, but this Yosemite Blue is my new favorite. They should just put this color on everything. The SLS. The E-Class. The CLA. Hell, […] More »
