    I actually have very high hopes for this car. The original gullwing is a spectacular looking vehicle.

    Since it's replacing the SLR, does that mean it'll come cheap?

    Nevertheless, the original Gullwing is such a pretty car and hopefully, the tradition lives on.

    I thought the SL65 AMG Black Series was replacing the SLR?

    Im looking forward to this. IMO the SLR should have never sported the MB name.. didnt suit MB or Mclaren.

    No, what made you think that?

    I either read it somewhere or heard it in a video a little while back. Guess that person was wrong.

    This car will kick an SLR's ass and cost hundreds of thousands less. Its also almost 1000 pounds lighter too...

    Any questions ?

    This car could be incredibly sick.

    I heard on this forum that the SL65 Black was the replacement for the SLR too...

    I heard that as well.

    I heard this SLS or what ever Mercedes will call it is going to be sort of like a more hard core car then the SLR was.

    Why? It handled and performed like a McLaren, and was comfortable like a Mercedes. It's the ultimate GT.
