Awesome!

Jaypod · 01-09-2010, 11:10 AM

Very cool ad! Sick car!

KonigsTiger · 01-09-2010, 11:23 AM

Wow!!!!!! It even made me like that God awful SLS. Not that I complain about its fabilous engineering. I mean Mercedes AMG has my utmost respect and they produce cars in general that I absolutely adore, but the shape of this one? Hmmm? Terrible!

Or is it only me? What do you guys thing?

Oh, I also thought the diriver was going to be Schumacher, just wait what Mercedes will do with that!

Jaypod · 01-09-2010, 11:25 AM

I agree - not in love with the exterior styling - thought they might have been able to do something a little better. But it's beginning to grow on me.

ALM3 · 01-09-2010, 04:51 PM

That is cool, but I did this in the tunnel entering Mosport at our last track day.

It would help if they loaned one to me for a week or so,to help me make up my mind if I like it or not

The ending was the best part. It sounds amazing.
I wonder if they are going to get rid of the 6.3L in the SLS and replace it with the 5.5L TB motor, as they are doing across the AMG line up.

Jay Leno goes for a drive in the SLS.

Funny you should say that. Duncan tells me that someone you both know watched this video:

And new it was you driving and didn't even know you had a MR M3!

Gearhead999s · 01-12-2010, 04:20 PM

Once he saw this this video,he was 100% sure

The SLS makes me feel like a kid again. I don't know why I want one but damn do I want one so badly...

Gearhead999s · 02-11-2010, 10:49 PM

Just found out tonight at the VIP night at the auto show that the SLS list is only $198000 cdn and with all the options about $250000.Much cheaper than I thought and looks great in person.The only other thing of real interest was the Fiat 500 babe.Bmw had nothing new there besides the Z4is,no LCI M3 or 335is's.The classic display is fucking awesome with all the old Shelby racecars and I met Bob Bondurant & talked to him for a bit which was pretty cool!
