That will leave a line up of SL350, SL500, SL600, SL63 AMG and SL65 AMG.

I assume (pls correct me if I'm mistaken) that the SL63 AMG has a supercharged 6.3 litre V8 whereas the SL65 AMG has a 6.5 litre V12 bi turbo??

I think MB and AMG should focus on improving handling and reducing weight rather than merely increasing engine size and power output. There has to be a point when there is simply too much power going to the rear wheels for it to be worthwhile.

I haven't driven the SL55 or the SL65. I have only driven the SL500 and I found the handling dreadful. It felt like a 2 door, 2 seater S Class. There was so much body roll. They should fix that first!



the SL500 and the AMG models are WORLDS apart. the Suspension, brakes, performance are totally different. but the SL's were never meant to be a good handling car, they are cruisers
