I think this is going to look absolutely gorgeous with the top down.

I wonder how this will affect SL sales.

I've also seen a few photoshop jobs of a GT roadster, I like what I have seen, the cars lines really cater to going topless.

So that confirms its a soft top it looks like. Mercedes will keep hard top for the SL to differentiate it

Ever since Mercedes decided to model the SL on some kind of crushed insect, sales can't get much worse.

Yes the front looks terrific but the Pontiac Grand Prix inspired bug-like brake lights are still there

Igree with ML63AMG, I'm sure it looks great with top down but soft v. hardtop is a huge differentiator between GT & SL.

Hoping the new SL comes with DCT.
