I like it very much! I think all those people who said it's gonna be a ugly car, they change their mind! I can't wait to see this beauty in real-life.

I am afraid the SLS doesn't do it for me. I appreciate how much work has gone in to it but for £180,000 it's way over for me.
I don't like the flat roof ( for the doors I suppose) I prefer the coupe look, not
fond of the front either. If you want one in the UK it's 20k deposit and a vague del date. Nope I prefer my SL63 which is a convertible and gives me
80k change.

Well, I saw some pics from the Essen Motor Show, where the German tuning house Brabus tuned the Mercedes SLS Amg.
What do you think of it? I personally think it looks great.
