I think that's the SLC or SLR (Yes, I know that the McLaren SLR is the SLR but I believe they are using the SLR moniker to keep with their naming).
Anyway, I think that's the baby SLS meant to fight the 911.

looks promising.
MB: please don't detune the engine capacity because you think it may overshadow the SLS.
Aston finally understood it when they came up with their AMV12.
So make it more ala GT3 versus grand tourer SL, 600hp, 110K. I am in if it looks close to olszowa's post

2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe' '99' Audi A4 Avant Quattro 2.8 DD
The highly-anticipated Mercedes C190 has been spied at the Nürburgring.
Caught pulling out of a garage, the sports car has a familiar design which is heavily influenced by the SLS AMG. Despite the styling similarities, the C190 is smaller and adopts a sportier design with a flowing roofline. We can also see conventional doors, a trunk-mounted spoiler and a dual exhaust system.
Under the hood, we can expect a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine that develops approximately 485 HP (357 kW). There could also be an S variant with 550 HP (404 kW) as well as a range-topping Black Series model with 585 HP (430 kW).
The C190 is expected to be launched in 2015 and eventually replace the SLS AMG. Despite previous reports that the model could be called the SLC, rumors suggest it won't adopt the "SL" prefix.
Since the model is envisioned as a Porsche 911 competitor, it will be significantly more affordable than its predecessor with a rumored base price of roughly €109,000 ($143,170 / €92,450).

Its supposedly 9" shorter than the SLS with same trans, engine, suspension, and chassis. Yes I have a SLC on order. They were greenlighted only recently. We will see the SLS disappear for 2 years then we get the SLC. Can't wait!!

Exactly! He claims to have had all these "first" AMG yet he has no clue as to how the process even works. I am getting the "FIRST" SLS BS in the COUNTRY and I know exactly how the process works.
1) Car need to be officially announced by MB/AMG, which the SLC has not.
2) Official DOG(Dealer Ordering Guide) gets published.
3)Allocations get handed out to customers/dealers in the form of purcahse orders.
4) Vehicle becomes live on NetStar dealer network and can be officially ordered.
Note: AMG PL has monthly online chat sessions with customers, last session the SLS replacement and SLC question came up and William Vetter responded by saying nothiing has been made official and will not for quite somke time and that was on June 19th.
Note 2: A high demand vehicle like the SLC(or whatever it will be officially named) will go through an even different process much like the SLS BS did, the final allocations went out after the car could officially be ordered on Net Star. basically there were a handful of customers that did not know if they were getting an allocation just three months before the first cars were set to be delivered, yet ShellURT claims to "have one on order"
His dealer is not even guaranteed a car so how can he be claiming to be promised one?

"First on the list," is far different from getting the first "SLC." I don't think I would make a claim like that until the car actually has a name. When did you get your SLS? I'm just curious.
