Holy crap @ driving on the opposite side of the road that much at those speeds!
And how do you tell the lane lines apart? They all looked like white dashed lines?

OMFG!! Nice find Toad! That bike tried his damndest holy krap! AMG rapage right there... Seriously crazy *** driver in SL63, those were some decent bends in road NOT huge but NOTHING any sane person would do @ low triple digits let alone flat out 186 +mph (as the bike hit 299km that = 186mph & the SL63 was steadily pulling massive train lengths on him, he must've been tuned @ least w/no limiter & easily hit 200mph inmop... Jeeezzz musta had Ice-Water pumping thru his veins to do that???

Definitely a 2013 Sl63. That car is wicked fast 
but going that fast on a country road is just plain stupid. In Germany on the Autobahn, no problem, but Sweden has low speed limits and harsh traffic laws.
Given the few white SL63's there, chances are they will find the guy even without seeing the license plate...
Edit. I looked at the HD version of the vid and it's a R230. From the bumper it appears to be a 2009 or later model. If so, I would rule out a 63 and think it'll be a 65

I don't think that's a 2013 R231, looks like the old body R230 SLxx to me. Tail lights, and the rear diffuser looks all R230, as seen in the first few seconds of the vid.
Probably a tuned 600 with a 63 body conversion.
Or just a slow stock 65.

I've danced with these super bikes before, but always on my terms. Never from a dig and always beginning at or above 100 mph. The W211 is very slippery (even more so if you take some rake out of it) and with the proper modifications, these bikes with their inherent high drag ratio (so far) are meat.
