Why no complete test yet?

Why have Road & Track, Automobile or Car & Driver not done a complete road test of the SL65 to date? Other cars, such as the next generation M5, which isn't even out yet, are being driven and reviewed. Even the Evo test didn't report numbers. Would be interesting to know stopping distances, slalom numbers etc.

I think they are making so few of them in the beginning that AMG did not even have press cars for journalists. Last month's EVO magazine had a small article on one which was a customer's car. They didn't even have a press car to test.
