SL65

I was never a huge fan of the last or current generation Mercedes Benz SL, but the new SL65 AMG Black Series is an entirely different story.

It’s extremely mean looking and has the balls to back it up. And with a $320,000 price tag, it better! At 4,122 pounds, the SL65 Black runs an upgraded twin-turbcharged 6.0-liter V12 capable of producing 661 hp at 5,400 rpm and 738 lb.-ft of torque.

SL65

With a five-speed automatic gearbox equipped with AMG’s speedshift software, the SL65 Black can hit 60 mph in 3.9 seconds on its way to a gearing-limited top speed of 199 mph.

Expect the SL65 AMG Black Series to debut in Paris, with sales beginning in the U.S. early next year.

    I wonder what the MPG is for this… maybe 5MPG or so. Who’s gonna buy that?

    People with $320k to blow on a car probably won’t care about MPG. :p
