    Re: New Mercedes SL

    That's the problem with Vario-roof. Fat behind to accommodate the metal roof and leave some luggage space.. Imagine this profile with fabric roof and a slimmer rear, how much nicer it would have been.

    Re: New Mercedes SL

    The first hard top SL was right first time ... IMvHO every design change since then has taken it further and further away from perfection to the point where it is now IMO really ugly.

    Re: New Mercedes SL

    I'm actually starting to like it more and more, the front lights look really aggressive and cool in this picture:

    The AMG version will make it look even better.

    It's very easy to fool yourself with CGI enhanced renders as one above, but the real problem is once you start looking at real world images when everything starts being grotesque and sad, to say the least...

     


    Re: New Mercedes SL

    Gosh I really miss the time when every new SL that came out was an event. The last time that happend was in 1990 when the SL came out, what a piece of art it was back then, a car apart from the competition with a glamour only a SL could have.

    This new one is just another plain and vulgar Mercedes. If it had SLK on the back it wouldn´t surprise anyone, this is so sad Smiley

    Totally agree, it instantly looked as a classic back in the days and still does nowadays! Smiley
