My review: 2011 Mercedes Benz SLS AMG.
 

This past week I worked on a commercial for the new SLS AMG, not to be released until next year.
Pretty awesome car all around. It wasn't 100% complete, the German tech guy had to keep pulling the dash out to tweak the electronics. But it was amazing.

The car ripped up and down the street a couple times; sounds AMAZING. Really throaty and loud from the V8...not like any Mercedes I've heard before. Normally I think Mercedes as quiet and toned down, but this thing was a BEAST.

I got to lift the gullwing door :) Pretty kickass. Interior is really nice. I would expect that for a $320,000 car.

The nose of the car is quite long, but makes sense; leaves room for the massive radiator. There's a popup spoiler on the hatch, pops up Porsche-style above 80km/h.

I'd like to have seen a different style of rim on the car, something beefier and more agressive with a deeper offset, rather than the played out standard AMG wheels.

All in all thumbs up Mercedes. Nice throwback to the 300SL.

Car looks absolutely stunning in that red7

I WANT YOUR JOB!!!

What the, I spotted you about 2 weeks ago, now you're in Germany filming a commercial?!

You have an awesome job.

did you go to film school or something to get that job whatever you were doing, I want it!!!1

Looks like that's In BC.....

That's correct, it's in BC. It's supposed to be in North America somewhere.
Sometimes I get lucky and get to work on a cool commercial...other times, not as fun :)

The red looked great, but of course I would like to see one in black...

When you guys shot the Tunnel scene. Must have been awesome listening to the engine sing. It's even better since the Tunnel was closed off.

wow thats verry subtle; i like

that car looks sexy as hell

Screw the SLS, I want the camera truck! :lol

That car is stunning... thanks for sharing.

but not sure about the back, kinda reminds me of a lexus...

Niceeee!

if you have that camera truck, you dont have to make that camera extension pole

rofl i spotted that same camera truck on lougheed/willingdon the other day. I was like WTF is that thing on the top? I figured it was for video use.

Yeah, I almost want the camera truck more. It was pretty sweet, the dudes sit inside and control everything while it drives. I would make some SWEET car movies with that thing!

I see the similarity with Lexus...but MB pulls it off much better.

I have a couple videos, I'll see if I can post them...

The tunnel shot is the best.
