The new SL63 is amazing. There's a paragraph talking about it on the blog. It really suits my driving style, I kept underdriving the car on the 3 laps that I had with it. I like cars with front end grip that I can control under braking, and the SL63 delivers. One of the fast corners at the track, I was letting off on all the other cars because it would understeer slightly and get pretty close to the curb on exit. The SL I went flat on my last lap and it just did it with no fuss, maybe a slight wag of the tail when the road cambers off a little. Top it off, in comfort mode, it's very comfy, unlike the C63 BS.

It's crazy how much it's improved from the last generation, it's like 2 different cars! Just impressed at how close they got the handling feel (but not outright grip) to the SLS and C63 BS, yet, it's a perfectly well behaved and smooth cruiser.

Do you enjoy HDR as much as your AMGs?

[rage2]

They're not HDR. Single shots from a GX1. I dunno how to do HDR.
