I think it looks pretty good. I love it when they update a retro car.

[Lomac]

I love the look from front on and the front 3/4. Really not liking the rear, though... something just doesn't look right.

[!SG]

the rear looks like a first gen acura cl.

i love the front, retro front grill!

[fliptuner]

the rear looks like a first gen acura cl.


That's what it was!!!! I was thinking before I saw your post.

Me likes. :thumbsup:

[ilvtofu]

+2 for acura CL, although a little bit of z8 mixed in there, love the classic look,
and love how they didn't just "sell out" by sticking on a nice set of headlights COUGH*AUDI*COUGH

[asian_speedster]

The front is awesome but the back...not so much. maybe if they made it a bit more square it would look nicer.

[J____]

something about it im not a fan of. the headlights dont look like a mercedes... the side vent reminds me of a chrysler crossfire, and that bump in the cpillar looks kinda outta place ... i still love the original!

[Klutch]

wow...love that front end styling!

[Ford_Fanatic]

Headlights are very GTARGHish. Too busy up front, not enough going on in the back to balance it out. Still, I'll take one in silver! :D

[StylinRed]

$252k damn (it doesnt look like its worth that much tbh)

wonder if there'll be a non-amg version thats like 1/4 the price? ;)

thats a hot shot

[Dinan3]

Looks very nice, but not $252k nice.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

pretty cool


better than SLR IMO

[Mercy]

reminds me of a gulwing

[asian_speedster]

^ its got gulwing doors! looks cool!

[ilvtofu]

Actually now that i think about it the original gullwing had a strange/not very pretty rear end too, i guess this takes from that

[trdees6o4]

Wow its seems they got lazy and copied the CL's rear but made it worse..

[nns]

Ugly. Finally, somebody made a coupe that's uglier than the SC430.

I've never been a fan of gullwing doors. SLS is no exception.

[Lomac]

reminds me of a gulwing

Because it's the modern take of the original.

[Blue92]

I think it's an epic throwback to the 300SL & it'll probably stand out for years to come...

Original car (1955):

[Hehe]

The front reminds me honda lude....

[Gt-R R34]

i like it a tonne. event he back, i think that back gives it that "new" styling vs the front retro.

[BMW135i]

Inspiration from old benz.

+1 for smooth body design

[BeefCake4000]

I like it, but for that price I would rather get an Aston Martin.

[tonyvu]

i like it, but i'd rather buy another super car for that price

[Meowjin]

you guys would like anything with a mercedes badge.

[jbsali]

eh looks ok i guess. headlights kind of look like the 2010 gtr's

[skyxx]

I'll take the Original Gull-wing. I think it's only me that thinks this looks odd. It's not ugly.

[Drift_Monkey]

the rear looks like a first gen acura cl.

i love the front, retro front grill!

wtf... I was thinking the same thing too haha

[Nightwalker]

OMG OMG OMG

[Pretz]

car's too long

[shenmecar]

I'll take the Original Gull-wing. I think it's only me that thinks this looks odd. It's not ugly.

+1. So its not just you.

Its weird. Kinda like the Cube, I wont say the Cube is ugly either. Just different.

[you!]

looks like a mercedes + viper + acura cl had sex

lol looks silly

[Harvey Specter]

I can't imagine paying $300,000+ for this car.

[danizer]

eh looks ok i guess. headlights kind of look like the 2010 gtr's

yay im not the only one who thought so...front looks nice...not the back

I can't imagine paying $300,000+ for this car.
well at least its cheaper than $450,000 SLR hahaha...imo...the SLR is 200 grand more expensive because it looks 200 times better :)

[skyxx]

I can't imagine paying $300,000+ for this car.

I would gladly pay $300,000 for the original one in mint condition.

[tofu1413]

+1. So its not just you.

Its weird. Kinda like the Cube, I wont say the Cube is ugly either. Just different.

ditto.




interesting looking car. no hate. no like though. front end is nice and CHUNKY

[donot521]

Oddly enough, I'm surprised no one mentioned the S2000-looking roof line.

[q0192837465]

i like this............but just like a lambo, u'r stuck to burn if u flip ur car

[tony2tone]

very nice!

[jmvdesign]

I can't imagine paying $300,000+ for this car.

Agree. This doesn't look or feel like a $300,000 car. The retrofuturism trend on modern cars is dated trend. This and the new McLaren are both definitely underwhelming and a huge step back in comparison to the previous Mclaren SLR and the new Lambos coming out.
