"This particular 2011 example, finished in AMG Alubeam Silver, highlights just how timeless the design remains over a decade later. The paintwork itself is noteworthy - Alubeam Silver was a costly, labor-intensive finish that gave the car a liquid-metal appearance, enhancing its already sculptural lines. Paired with the black Designo Exclusive leather interior, this SLS AMG achieves an ideal balance of modern performance car aggression and old-world elegance."
"Beneath the hood lies what many enthusiasts consider to be one of AMG's crowning achievements: the naturally aspirated 6.2-liter M159 V8. Hand-built by a single AMG technician under the brand's "One Man, One Engine" philosophy, the powerplant produces 563 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. The result is a car that delivers visceral acceleration while producing one of the most memorable exhaust notes of any modern supercar."
"The result is a car that delivers visceral acceleration while producing one of the most memorable exhaust notes of any modern supercar. Paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, the SLS AMG is capable of sprinting from 0 to 60 mph in just over 3.5 seconds and reaching a top speed north of 190 mph. The transmission's lightning-fast shifts make the car equally at home on a winding mountain pass as it is on a racetrack."
