Just stumbled upon the "Super Rare 07' SL65 AMG Blk Ser"

Owner is out there WTF He obviously has reg SL65 AMG 2007, but rambles on & on about it having Black Series lineage...
The very, very, very, Rare ultimate exclusive..
This video is so full of win...

Chk out vid, Salesman says we've got a Twinturbo V12 & owner buts in "Ahh it's a BITURBO which means it has (1) Turbocharger that splits into (2) making it much more receptive & it's 795 BHP & around 695 RWHP" (he obviously knows a little about Dynos etc so it's even more hilarious how he doesn't know jack about the SL he's trying to sell)

Also has the Correct Lowenhart wheels according to knowledgeable Salesman & is Badged Black Series etc.. WoW just WoW anyone know this Toolbag SL blk ser owner?

Boy all that wind noise was irritating, must be caused by all the HP from that car, even when the motor is not running it's making power.

Well it has a badge that says B.S.

All I can say is Wow!

How can two supposed 'car guys', including the owner, know so little and act like they know so much?

This is beyond epic... it's like watching the titanic and Hinderburg come down TOGETHER... OMFG+ROFL!

But my favorite part is when the video guy hears the cold start and he's like "Wow, what a unique sound..."

What does he mean by "the turbo is more receptive...", more receptive to what??? lol!

Hey, he might have actually paid that much for them? Hopefully the wheel salesman told him some ridiculous story about the wheels being made out of Unobtainium metal, after seeing this guy's B.S. pull up to the door

That vid is from November, but inexplicably the car is still available:

CLICK HERE

Im amazed that a $300,000 car that can be had for 1/4 that price is still available.


Evidently that place is a consignment shop, so I wonder if the owner of the car is just a great bull****ter, or does he actually believe that he owns a Black Series SL?

That is a possibility. He may have been duped by a previous owner and may honestly believe that he's driving a BS. It does say so on the trunk badging after all.

Something else I noticed: The "V12 BITURBO" badge sits in the wrong position. It's not properly centered, i.e. doesn't exactly sit where it's supposed to sit.

I saw this a while ago, and still learning about the difference between AMG and "AMG," this car puzzled me as well. Suffice to say, when I see a listing from We Bee Autos...I don't even bother. The only thing I recognized as BS was the handicap tag hanging from the mirror...which was already pointed out. His reflection didn't look too handicapped.

Those wheels need to be on a Chrysler 300. He paid $3000/wheel too much. Also, he needs to learn how to hit the suspension control cause our boy is driving in SUV mode.

I doubt this is a SL65 Black Series!
This is a Tuned SL65, Black Series labeled!

The true SL Black Series is a Coupe without RHT and wide body and came 2008.
