Mercedes Benz SL63 AMG Roadster. The luxurious mean machine.

Is there a perfect mix between a sports car and a touring vehicle?  Well there didn’t used to be, but the 2009 Mercedes SL63 aimed to change all that.

The SL55 made the game hard not only for competitors but also for Mercedes themselves. How where they ever going to improve on near perfect? The SL63 AMG is the answer.

It was sort of half expected that the SL will be more than 2 tons as it is as luxurious as it is as fast.

Almost 500 horses under the hood deftly take the Mercedes SL63 AMG Roadster from zero to sixty in under four and a half seconds – which will rival (or beat) many of the lighter and “sportier” cars on the road today – including the Chevy Camaro SS and the Dodge Challenger.A car that costs more than 4 times a Camaro will force the buyer to have high hopes.

It’s not just the competition from other car managers that the SL63 had managed to handle in direct comparison.By adding 20 horse power the SL63 is now a tenth of a second faster than the SL55 to 60mph and in completing the quarter mile.  This slight advantage (even with the SL63 carrying extra poundage over the SL55), helps put to rest the fear that the latest in the AMG line wouldn’t stack up to the “super” car in the luxury class.

The engineering and beauty of this car are truly at another level when compared to cars in the similar price range.In under 20 seconds you can have to SL63 transformed from formally "dressed" to casual with the hard top folding down.

No surprise in terms of the interior design, it is flawless.  Seat adjustments that could accommodate everyone from Jockeys to professional basketball players and everyone in between; a very user friendly, built in navigation system and heated seats complete with neck warmers are just a few of the amenities.

This Mercedes has superior power, superior handling and superior driver comfort – it is far and away the top of its class – in fact, at this moment it’s the only car in its class.While the SL55 was no doubt top of its class, the new model takes the league to new heights.
