+1 :word:

Is MB trying to make it look like one a "Dodge" Magnum? :smash: Seems like it from the sideshot, lol? And why the redesign on body styling so soon? hmm... IMO, if it ain't broken, dont fix it! the current style of the SL class looks pretty as it is now.

Barf.

WOW they effed that up. The current 2009-2011 SL63 IMO is the most badass looking SL to date.. the rear diffuser is sex, and the front is very aggresive. The only thing I like on this 2013 is the taillights. And that is it!

actually i think it does resemble the pic ..well the front end looks similar. Oh well we will see soon enough . Hopefully MB doesn't F up a good thing.

I love it, but I'm def getting the SLS.

holy hell:eek: looks like the 230 '03 - '08 is becoming more and more of a keeper as years move on...

Santa Claus driving a SL? hahahh

seriously, this photoshop has headlight look like a Lexus...

No No No No, looks dreadful, looks like a whale!:D

They reached the ultimate with the 63.:bow:
down hill from then.:crazy:

I just spotted a testing mule in Dubai of the new SL. Couldn't take any pictures though.

All I could tell from a glance, it definitely looks similar to the picture from the first link above, but around the front there were a few changes, and there were a few LED's slightly uncovered by the black tape.

Guessing since temperatures in Dubai now reach 45+, I am guessing heat testing?

wtf is that ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I like how everyone's judging this car based on being almost 100% covered in heavy camo.

That seems to be normal. When the 230 was being released there was the same reaction. I'm sure most everybody remembers the reaction to the 221 S Class. The testing mules really are a poor way to judge the car since typically the real life models are much better looking and the tech changes are in the wow category.

As for the front end, expect to see a refresh similar to the one done on the current CL.

The fog lights will be replaced with LED strips, the headlights will have more LEDs implements into them and the tailights will get a new shape and also have a different LED design.

The entire makeover for the SL won't happen for another 2-3 years.

I'm pretty sure this isn't a refresh. This is the all new, made over, SL. The R230 has already had it's facelift/refresh (both of them).

not digging those exhaust tips.

I dunno will have to see it without its cladding...but it will be hard to top the '03 - '08 R230 body

there will be a version with the new 350 cdi BI TURBO DIESEL..to fight against the bmw 640D

Are you saying effing ugly :rolf::rolf:
then say it Fu##ing ugly:D

The roof looks exactly the same as it looks on the R230.

looks like its made for 99 year old fogies , walking dead types.. :eek:
