Looks very aggressive, but I wish they would've increased the hp by at least 100 hp

drooling.....

Now I know why I don't like the design of the ZR1 - this SL65 will set a new design benchmark!

SLR brake job is literally 20k. Spark plugs require the ENTIRE engine to be dropped out.

SLR is actually worse than the F car for service and that's saying something.

Black Series FTW!!

Also SLR is officially over now. We get one more special one (Speedster) and then it's SLC Gullwing time. Can't wait!!

Speedster below

a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
That is one sweet looking car.
Damn...just, damn!


Looks like there is a button on top of the shift knob. It's obviously not the START/STOP button. What is it?

Just a few things I don't like but they're easy to change anyway...wheels, sideview mirrors (they appear to be similar to the facelifted CLS) and exhaust (I prefer quad-ovals).

Incredible looking beast, and it is a beast - wonder if any will actually make it on to a track though since IMHO that's where it belongs with all that power and chassis updates.

Makes the CLK 63 BS look a bit too refined and girlish!
Still seems like a better idea to keep the starter button on the shifter and ditch the top button altogether. Whatever, all it needs is a set of custom HRE's and a trip to Renntech. Splooge city.

I think that's called the SLR 722 GT - saw one up close and personal at the NYIAS in April, the smell of the carbon fiber composites was intoxicating...

Well guys, call me the biggest dumb **** on the planet, but I had my wife cut a check to MBLN for a deposit on the SL65 BS.

I don't have full specs yet, but she mentioned the ability to spec via AMG Performance Studios; which has me thoroughly excited since I am stuck here in India. She will be going this week to drop the check off and get the order in. If the sheer accelaration and power are anything like that of my fathers S65, I am in for a true treat.

Good looking. I don't think they riced it out, looks perfect to me.
