Nose to nose, The AMG is refined and fast. The GT350 goes down the road with major drama.

Thank you Havoc. To clarify "Drama" for the GT350, it's light and fast (2835 lbs or about 1286 kilos and dynoed at 420 HP, it is natural aspirated) and very noisy. It sets off other car alarms and you can hear it a coming a quarter mile away. It's better suited for the track but it is street legal. It is also one of the first original 100 cars (serial number wise) that homologated or qualified the Shelby GT350 as a production car. Of the original 562 cars built in 1965 this is one of them. I'm very careful with this car, as it too is a joy to drive.
This is an MB////AMG forum, so I'll focus back to my SL55

Figured I'd finally show the 55 before it's replaced by the SL65.

SL R230
Since this one is a picture thread, I thought that Illl post to you some photos of our latest bodykit for the R230's. The one on the pic is 63 AMG.

When designing this body kit we were inspired by mercedes SLS and this is what we came with. It sits on 20' Rotiform Forged Wheels.
