    That car can't have any rigidity, there is no way its spending the majority of its time on the track. Not to mention, they don't talk a lick about the suspension. Like I have always said, Mercs are great in a straight line. It is certainly not a BMW or Porsche. Merc still remains the fat bankers solution to sports car. Still would much rather have a GT3 RS.

        I didn't see any track times.

        I would certainly hope that it would be faster than a car 1/7 it's price. I wonder how it matches against a 911 GT3 RS! (a car 1/3 it's price)

          pretty sure it beat the GT3 on the top gear test track.

                  You can't possibly compare that car to a BMW bro, no way. The new M3 is like 450bhp, that Merc Black is 670bhp which is at the very top end of supercar stats.

                  Also how much would one of those cost, at least £100,000 Vs M3 costing about £50,000

                  still very nice car

                  Mercedes AMG SL 65 Black Series

                    On a merc board I goto someone paid 350K usd to be one of the first to have it.
                    I have no clue what the list price is but im sure its around 250K. What is that like 4 lil M3s???? The SL BS would make a M3 look like a toyota prius in looks and performance.

                      i understand that. and that is why the title of thread says, "bmw has nothing to match this". then chris came along and said "its certainly not a bmw or porsche on the track". lol

                        No, you extrapolated that from:

                        ...Mercs are great in a straight line. It is certainly not a BMW or Porsche. Merc still remains the fat bankers solution to sports car. Still would much rather have a GT3 RS.
                        You brought up the M3 as a comparison, while I suggest the GT3 RS. I would like to see the track times it posted compared to the GT3. I didn't even see a B pillar on the car so there has to be tons of torsion on that body.

                        The car costs 364K:

                        ...at a price of $364,800: a frankly insane amount of money, especially when you factor in the cost of employing your own personal weatherman to alert you to the three days a year when it's safe to actually drive it.
                        and for that you could own a Ferrari, or in Bouncers case a Gallardo.

                          Lets make this clear, like and dislike are two different things. I can't even tell if it is a convertible. My point being that every Merc AMG is just too wayward and uncontrollable on a track. Not a bad car, but not a car I would want.
