Mercedes SL65 AMG

The 45th anniversary edition of the Mercedes SL65 AMG is a limited version of the super GT featuring unique styling details and interior appointments. The car is no faster than the standard SL65, but it looks much cooler than that, thanks to the designo magno graphite matt paint job and carbon fiber package. The paint job also conceals the new SL’s design faults – such as the massive headlights – to some extent. It’s limited to 45 units, hence the name.

Engine-wise you get a 630 horsepower V12 engine that also makes a colossal 1000 Nm of torque.

Here’ an interesting promo video Mercedes just released for the car. They say this car is the only place where men are allowed to cry! Watch it to find out why:
