I dont know what to think about it. I think the original 300SL's are gorgeous though

Front and side is okay, the back is meh.

There are other cars in this world besides Hondas.

eh i agree with Johnny...the 300SL was a superior styled machined compared to this.

Looks pretty similar to the old school Mercedes .

EJ25RUN
09-08-2009, 10:47 PM
no shit

I will admit though that after looking again, the S2K and CL are a close match.

To add, in a way, it reminds me of the Z8.

I'm not seeing the S2K but CL wise....its just the trunk. Should have made it look a lot more like the 300SL's

Not more so than the latest crop of throw backs.

Let's see, You have the....

S197 Mustangs
new Camaro
new Challenger
Fiat 500
new Minis

Compared to these, the SLS does just enough for you to know it is a Mercedes Benz.


and Citroen is supposed to show the new 2CV in Frankfurt.

6.3L V8, 571hp

I read the article in motor trend about it and it sounded like quite a car, not crazy about the front end really but I see what they are going for. I'm sure it's stunning in person

Looks nice but it doesn't scream supercar like the mclaren SLR did (Im assuming this is its replacement).

Finally...I've been waiting to see this for quite some time.

I'm pretty impressed. The roofline looks too blocky though. Otherwise...great work Mercedes!

It looks really nasty, but i think i like the previous body style better. A sick car though

Yes. It actually reminds me of a newer TVR. Not relly feeling the headlights, they break up the natural flow of the car. Interior is gorgeous and the engine is beautiful.

I'm really loving the font end, looks hot. The rear is huge disapointment and the doors however cool, do look to be a bit impractical.... but I wouldn't care!! :crazy:



I'm not certain but I do not think this would be replacing the SLR. Looks to compete against the M roadsters.

I thought the same exact thing..

I love it and I actually prefer this over the SLR. I hear they are also working on an electric version that has even more torque than the V8, somewhere in the are of 650 lb-ft. The only problem is all these electric supercars max out around 130.

Car reminds me too much of the old SLR to be honest. I like it but would have loved to seen more cues from the old one.

The thing with that is, the SLR was made with the Gullwing SL in mind aswell....

Yes. It actually reminds me of a newer TVR.

I think that's why I like this car so much. I think TVRs are some of the most wildly stylish cars built.

I actually like it. And while the back isn't particularly attractive, there's something about how simple it is that I really like.

still believe the SLR is better looking,it was just stunning.

i think this is a great looking car,but i feel in looks its shadowed by the new SL65 AMG Black Series

I think this car has so much more presence than the SLR. This one actually looks like Mercedes' halo car whereas the SLR looked like a kitted up SL.

I wasn't really a fan of the SLR.

yeah thats what I was thinking, sort of looks like a beefed up z8. its a gorgeous car though, interior looks very slick.
I will admit though that after looking again, the S2K and CL are a close match.

To add, in a way, it reminds me of the Z8.

i see where ur coming from,i mean i really havent seen the SLS in action...so thats also kinda weighing of mind bout the SLR.

the SLR was amazing to be over 4k pounds and could handle and stop on a dime.But i do like the SLS,but i dont think it leaves me in awe as the SLR did when it debuted.
