A detailers REAL nightmare

How did you know it was an AMG?? The alpine is one of only 200 in the USA and one out of 555 made.

The owner of the sl55 is waiting for the SL60 to come to the states. I hear that one has 600+ horse power!

Mercedes really needs to step back and look at its priorities. The AMG lineups are nice, but they really need to build a high performance car for carving corners. The Sl55 AMG held a nice slalom speed for Motor Trend, but no where near the records.

And I might add, that a 1990 LX Sport Mustang holds the third fastest slalom speed ever recorded by Motor Trend, and only after $3k of suspension mods, totalling a $8k car

Life is good when you are the king!

I knew it was AMG because of the Body and the V8 Compressor Badgeing on the side. The SL60 is going to be crazy they might also make it a SL65 no one knows yet. They need to cut the weight down of the cars and improve handeling but the car is still amazing.

The alpina is really rare to see even more rare then a Lamborghini.
