Maintenance on an SL63

Looking at a 2017 SL63 with 10k miles. I would like to educate myself of some of the costs of owning this type vehicle. There is around 2 years left on the warranty. What are typical yearly maintanace costs for the SL63? Are brakes and other wear items very costly?
We've leased several ML350's and GLE 350 and 400 and always prepay maintenance so I never concern myself with these costs. Thanks for any input!

Good question- I am looking at a couple of SL63s also and would like to know how AMG service is different from non AMG.

Perhaps hop over to the AMG section of the forum that focuses on the SL variety.
