Open Sensuality: Roadster Performance in its Perfect Form.

Mercedes SLS AMG Raodster The performance brand within Mercedes-Benz Cars is presenting a new dream-car: the SLS AMG Roadster.
The technological highlights of the SLS AMG Roadster read like an A-B-C of modern sports car engineering.
The combination of an aluminum spaceframe body, an AMG 6.3-litre V8 front-mid engine with dry sump lubrication developing a peak output of 571 hp, a seven-speed dual clutch transmission in a transaxle arrangement and sports suspension with aluminum double wishbones is guaranteed to make the hearts of sports car enthusiasts beat faster – while ensuring outstanding driving dynamics and motoring pleasure.


 The compact fabric soft top of the SLS AMG Roadster opens and closes in just eleven seconds, and can be operated on the move at speeds up to 50 km/h.
The new AMG RIDE CONTROL sports suspension with electronically controlled damping is available as an attractive optional extra. It enables the damping characteristics to be modified at the touch of a button.
Using the AMG DRIVE UNIT, the driver of the SLS AMG Roadster is therefore able to choose his own suspension setup. Three modes are available: "Comfort", "Sport" and "Sport plus".
"AMG Performance Media" is a unique new feature: this innovative multimedia system inspired by motorsport offers an unrivalled combination of numerous telemetric displays such as lateral and linear acceleration, various engine data and lap times on a racetrack, and also features high-speed mobile internet access.

I don't even need to know the specs of that masterpiece to realize it's an automobile of the future. Just look at that thing of beauty.

It's a masterpiece alright. A wondrous Mercedes to make the dreams come true for Mercedes racing enthusiasts and convertible lovers. Nothing's nicer than driving this convertible with a lot of eyes looking at you.

Sophisticated technology. The performance is awesome and the look is quite fashionable. Would love to have this car.
