That car is fantastic...pure sex on wheels.

Am SO glad they do not have the tiny gear shift too.

Not sure I like where they moved the start button...but I could make an exception if they decided to give me one.

I don't want this, I NEED this. Too bad I can't afford one!

Seems like when Mercedes is done cranking out Black Series cars, our regular AMG cars will be very average.

Your worst nightmare...
Very nice car indeed!!

Few things I noticed that make up the power...Bigger intercooler cores, larger Airboxes, definitely bigger turbos! A lot of ventilation, it's incredible the heat it produces ...Wow, this is the money maker right here fellas. Wonder what this puppy will put after they raise Boost...

Wife would have to be banned from driving it. Look at that front end stick out.

She'd have it crunched in minutes.

"Oh honey, when I pulled out of the bank today, I wanted to show my girlfriend it's power so I punched it and heard this BANG in the front end. Did it have something to do with the massive culvert you have to cross to get out of the bank? Anyway, off to the mall"

Jim just weeps on the couch.

Looks amazing but would you pay 300k for it?? If you could ... I would not ...I think an F Car would come into play first... well maybe

Is that really a Mercedes? Looks pretty riced out for a Benz

/flame suit on

And how is it an "SL" if it's a hardtop coupe?

Some really bizarre product planning here: who in their right mind thought that a convert/roadster platform (inherently low rigidity vs an equivalent coupe), chopped to remove the folding hardtop and a fixed hardtop added after the fact, would make for a great track car?

The contradiction-in-terms reminds me of the CLK DTM cabrio

I thought so too...but then realized that since they eliminated the convertible top, the starter button is now where the switch for the top was.

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!
