Default More Dream Cars

Uncle Space, do you like this one, Mia wants one?


2009 Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG[/align][/align][/align]Another eagerly awaited car bowing at the Geneva show is the all-new Mercedes- Benz SL63 high-performance roadster.


This AMG-built 6.3-liter V-8 powerplant should produce in excess of 500 horsepower and will most likely be mated to Mercedes’ 7-speed automatic transmission featuring AMG Speedshift steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.


Highlights to the latest iteration of this venerable German top-down two-door SL-Class include a sportier, new-look front fascia and hood, McLaren SLR-style side vents, a restyled cabin, and Airscarf – a head and neck warming system integrated into the headrests to allow for more top-down touring in the cooler seasons.


But this classy yet athletic-looking machine gets an even more aggressive look for the SL63 model. Lightweight 5-spoke alloys are shod with large-diameter, low- profile performance rubber for improved handling. And that aforementioned “fish gille”-styled side vent on the standard car is replaced by a larger, sturdier- looking one piece appliqué featuring bold “6.3 AMG” scripting. At the back, a more pronounced rear undertray, quad exhaust tips and a lip spoiler running across the trunk from taillight to taillight lets those caught in its wake as it rapidly passes by know that this isn’t any ordinary SL.


Prices for the new SL-Class should range between $100,000 (V-8 engine) and $140,000 (V-12-equiiped), with the new SL63 likely slotting in somewhere in between (though most likely closer to the upper echelon).

Good taste, 'Space. Aston Martins are very nice cars. When I was working at the mall back home, (For some reason it is a tourist HOTSPOT!!) A guy had an Aston Martin Vanquish with UK Plates and he let me sit in it and start it up...I spent the night in jail because apparently he didn't want me driving it...LOL J/K. It was a very nice car though.The MB SL63 is too, but I think I would rather have the C63 AMG.

Please post pictures of your Lotus, and give us a update
on your 07 SS.
You are a very lucky person to have two super cars.
We will be looking for pic's of both
Peace/Out, from `Space
