SLS Black numbers

Gents,
I have seen multiple mention of between 130-132 SLS Blacks being originally delivered to the US market. The color breakdown is on wiki.

Anybody know total number produced worldwide?

Thanks!

Thanks. I have seen that as well. Was really curious total world wide production?

Also, anyone know the story of the Le Mans Red one? Seen that one for sale before. Not sure how a preproduction car made it to market

I did some searching around a bit and came up empty. In my mind I thought I heard it was 200 total but can't confirm.

I did stumble on this release I had not seen before

Interesting that the European version did not come with the Carbon Fiber Engine cover/trim as standard
