2011 Mercedes SLS 63 Supersport GT by Kicherer


 
  Review 
 
   

German tuner, Kicherer, loves tuning Mercedes vehicles and apparently, they love sticking hot models on their projects for a photo shoot too.

Fresh off their take on another SLS AMG Supersport a few months ago, Kicherer – and their hot models – is proud to introduce their new crowning glory, the SLS 63 Supersport GT.

Decked in that unmistakable matte black foliation finish, the SLS 63 Supersport GT also comes with a rather curious shark-mouth, hand-made grille. We say curious because, well, we don’t like it, although Kicherer seemed to think that it added a sharper bite to the car’s looks so they decided to go with it. In any case, the modified SLS AMG was also given a new carbon front spoiler lip with a carbon fin set to go along with a set of the tuning company’s own three-piece RS-1 rims: 10J x 20” at the front and 11.5Jx21”. Save for the grille, the aerodynamic kit looks mighty impressive and it’s made even better by the fact that Kicherer also gave the car a performance upgrade, bumping up the car’s output to 621 horsepower and 516 lb/ft of torque. This allows the Mercedes to clock a 0-62 mph time of just 3.5 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 199 mph.

Can’t say that we don’t find the SLS 63 Supersport GT beautiful with the exception of that shark grille. But hey, if the car comes with those knockout vixens, then we’re going to let that grille pass.

Too bad those girls are not part of the package, they would have been nice accessories when driving this one. Good thing the car looks every inch great though.

Guess what, I actually am starting to like the shark mouth grill on this one. It really complements the overall looks of the car and makes it look rather unique.

I really love it when they use black for a car’s colors. Certainly makes this one stand our well. Those wheels are also another bonus factor of this car.

Those gull wing doors are certainly one of the best design elements of this car. They stand out pretty well here, no matter what th3e setup of this baby is.

Well, if we are going to removed the gull wing on the car then there’s no more good about this. The front is so huge and it needs a serious facelift.

I must say that I a really loving the SLS 63 no matter what custom package they put on it. This one is certainly no exception, and I actually like that grille on this one.
