Its public premiere celebrates the SL 65 AMG on the cars Show in New York. To the dealers 612 HP strong roadster, to which between 2.000 and 4.000/min a torque of 1.000 Nm keeps ready, will roll in June 2004. According to factory specification kept in track the SL 65 AMG in only 4.2 seconds of zero on speed 100, which 200 km/h mark was already after 12.9 seconds is reached. Only with 250 things the electronic latch plate puts itself forward. For the power transmission the AMG speed SHIFT five-course automatic transmission with additional manual flow programme over steering wheel circuit provides. The increased output of the roadsters of the world required modifications at the transmission components, strongest after Mercedes diction.

Ahhhhh, yes. A torque monster. That's what I like to see. Come on, at idle this thing has to be making Viper-like torque!!! Insanity! 111 hp/liter and over 130 tq/liter. Truly one car I won't een TRY to make the reliability argument against. Absolutely stunning.

Gee, Mercedes just COULD take some of the time and money they're putting into these absurd horsepower figures and maybe, just MAYBE, put a little more into some badly needed quality control instead ?
Naw, I guess that would just make too much sense.
