What a wonderful looking car... Spoiler could mbe be slightly more discrete and the wheels I dont like either.
Yet no one has mentioned the price? ~320k for that car is bananas. The colour bwteen the door and rear panel looks off unless its just the shade / angle.
Sorry trying to find fault so I can say its not worth it.... but I can't really.
One thing that IS disappointing : its just a remapped and 65 V12 with bigger turbo's and I/C. They could have done more to the motor surely, although I suppose they did not need to...
Still the 5spd box I assume?

ok send me a picture of a us customerand his sl black series, along with your address and I'll make sure to send you my bs. You are beating a dead tree and arguing with the wrong person about this.
Also I never said it was about money.

The original poster is a jerk and as a matter of fact
you're all jerks for showing that to me. I looked at all 31 pictures...and yep, you're all jerks. Just knowing that the machine in the picture even exists changes my outlook. Why oh why could I not just proceed with my happy little life not knowing about it or having seen it. I'd liken having seen it to the same feeling felt by a long-time E320 driver (who thought all E-Classes drove exactly the same) who gets his first drive in an E55 or E63, but can't actually realistically afford one. I guess I could look at this car if I planned on living in it.

I simply stated that I would bet that SL65 Black Series that we have coming that there is not one sold to a customer in the United States yet. Period. Not to the president of MBUSA or the guy who offered them 2 million dollars for one (if there is such a guy).
Oh and your right, we definitely won't be the first, and honestly couldn't care if were the last... All I know is I will have daily seat time in one when it does get released in the US, and to me, thats good enough

I would not expect this car to hit our shores until next year according to my dealer and AMG Performance Studios.
