I think that National Geographic, had a awesome show about the SLS AMG last night. Very informative on how the car is constructed, and how light the aluminum space frame is. I especially like the engine construction piece. Two Thumbs Up

Any Canucks interested in this program can catch it tonight on the National Geographic channel, not sure if it is being re-aired in the US.
