Inden Design has launched a new tuning package fr the Mercedes SL500 that is offering the sports car the same performances of a SL65 AMG.
On the exterior the Inden SL500 receives a front spoiler, a rear valance with carbon diffuser, side skirts and a rear spoiler as well as rear lights, black door handles, mudguards and radiator grill and a new high-grade steel exhaust pipe.
The car sits on INDEN Champion light aluminum rims 10,5x20 and 11,75x20 inches with 255/30-20 and 305/25-20 high-capacity Pirelli tires. The SL is also equipped with the integrated ABC-sport suspension module with adjustable height up to about 50 mm.
Join the BBC’s bad boys of automotive journalism when Top Gear test drives the Mercedes Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series. Not to ruin it for the ultra exclusive Black Series owners, but according to Mr. Clarkson, this is the most uncomfortable car in all of human history.
Either way the fixed roof SL features loads of carbon fiber body work, about half a foot wider track, fully adjustable coil over suspension and a 661 HP twin turbo V12 making it one of the most extreme AMG models of all time.
Only a Japanese company could upgrade a Mercedes Benz SL600 with over a quarter of a million Swarovski crystals and find it stylish, when it was unveiled at the Tokyo Auto Salon earlier this year. Even without the bedazzled treatment the twin turbo SL with its 510 HP V12 can go from 0 to 60 MPH in under 4.5 seconds.
Although still hot off the production line, the Mercedes Benz SL63 AMG is already one of the sportiest models in the German automaker’s luxury car lineup. But for tuners like Kicherer, sporty is not enough, so they started by upping the output to 560 HP.
A short while ago Mercedes Benz was kind enough to bring an SL65 AMG Black Series, the same car that leads F1 cars around the circuit while under caution, to sunny South Florida with the very special special guest Sir Stirling Moss. But even better was that they let us take it for a spin. Watch the video to see what we thought of the nearly 700 HP, twin turbo, carbon fiber clad Mercedes Benz super car.
The stylists at Piecha Design have just released a revised front end for the Mercedes Benz SL. The re-engineered front end has been dubbed the Avalange RS Frontspoiler, and has proven its worth at speeds of over 300 Km/h. Added benefits include built in running lights and Parktronic parking assist sensors.
Mercedes finally revealed the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series, a model limited to only 200 units for the US market, each priced at $320,000.
The new SL65 AMG Black Series coupe features a carbon-fiber fixed roof, front fenders, hood, trunk lid and front and rear aprons. With all these super-strong, lightweight parts, plus the absence of retractable roof hardware, the car is more than 550 pounds lighter than the standard SL.
Under the hood AMG placed a modified version of the 6.0-liter AMG V12 engine that now delivers 650 horsepower and a staggering 738 pound-feet of torque. Its twin turbochargers are 12 percent larger, passages for intake air and the turbo wastegates have been modified, and the intake air intercooler is 30 percent more efficient. The result is zero-to-60 mph acceleration of only 3.8 seconds, and an electronically limited top speed of 198 mph.
The German-based tuning house wheelsandmore is showing off their latest creation, dubbed the SL-Maxx. The vehicle features a combination of elegance and performance. Not satisfied with the 500 HP from the AMG version, in a similar process as their CL45, the tuners massaged the engine to extract a total of 600 HP and 765 lb-ft of torque.
The Danish Mercedes-Benz tuners, Kleemann have just got their hands on the amazing SL65 AMG Black Series. Their previous therapy for all 6.0 liter AMG cars involved their 65-K1 kit that raised output from 627 HP to 692 HP. With Mercedes’ introduction of a 670 HP V12 Black Series, the tuners decided that they needed something more powerful. Kleemann increased the dosage by developing the 65-K2 kit, raising output to an incredible 720 HP. Thus turning the Black Series into an even more exclusive, ultimate super car.
Using only factory AMG parts, the German tuners at Inden Design have successfully updated a 2005 SL65 AMG to 2008 specifications and beyond. It’s called the White Angel. Sure, the updates give the old car a new appearance, but the real prize is the upgraded turbocharger, which goes beyond the current car’s 604 hp to a total of 680 HP.
