Is this car really worth $180 000

I find the SL 65 an attractive car but when paying over $180 000 you would expect more than just a bigger engine. I have looked at the car and yes you do get optional wheels and bit more suede in the interior but I often think that AMG should have done more to the car for that kind of price.

$180 000 can get you a 360 Spider F1, Lambo Gallardo and many other exoctics. The SL 65 would have been a home run if they made the interior different than the 55. When looking back the perect looking car was the CL 55 F1 which wasn't available to the U.S but what you recieved in that car was just amazing. The whole car was redone. THe interior had racing seats and looked totally different than the CL 55.

Another thing I found dissappointing in the car was that you can ge the same front bumper on your 55 when specialed ordered that the 65 comes with. AMG should have left parts on the 65 that no one can get on their other AMG's to make that car more special.

well, as far as I can see it is worth much more...I buy what I see and I like...and the SL55 for me is almost out of the question...hello SL65...but why the hell would you want an expensive cruise control option to a car that has 700+ ft lb of torque...why
