  • Mercedes-AMG SL 63 4MATIC+ is 200 thousand euro roadster. Is it worth the price? This marvelous car has its roots in the automotive icon - the W198 300 SL Gullwing, which also came in the less spectacular roadster form. Then we had the W113 Pagoda, the R107, the R129, the R230 and the R231, which as far as I remember was a heavy brick. This Mercedes-AMG SL Roadster is the R232, which is also not a featherweight, but at least it doesn’t fell heavy. Especially in the 63 form, which has 585 angry horses under the bonnet.

    The car looks and sounds great. It's funny that manufacturers try to entice younger folks with the new tech bling but it's only the older folks with enough crazy cash to buy it and retired to have the time to enjoy it.

    I've had a soft spot for the SL ever since my uncle took me for a ride in his R129 back in the day. It was a great car for just cruising around in, a bit like a German version of a 1960's American land yacht. While I'm sure the 4 cylinder version would have adequate power, I feel like it clashes with the whole idea of this car.

    Hint: Press the Roof-Button on the Button-Bar below the screen once. Then press and hold the Roof-Button below the screen the second time. Now, wait for the magic to happen. The roof will open or close. That depends on which state the Roof is at. That is way more easy than sliding and holding the bar on the screen to the left or right.

Personally I'd buy a Porsche 718 GTS 4.0 convertible or an Audi TT convertible and save a boatload for other things I could throw money at but I guess I'm not the type that flexes.

    The vehicle is overpriced. It has an interior that you can get in a new C-class and engine you can get in any AMG GT for less money. And it doesn't outperform the cheaper 911 GTS Cabriolet which is the class benchmark. Unless they drop the price, this car is going to be a fail for AMG.

    • @iamcarl4591
      @iamcarl4591 Год назад +2

      I don't think they'll fail.
      First, it's a Mercedes, which makes it more livable than something like a 911.
      Second, it got a V8, people WILL go crazy for V8 these days.
      Third, rich people love trying new.
      Fourth, the new SL have 4wd and 4ws, which make it easier to drive unlike the GT(which is a race car covered in a GT shell) or the 911 is straight up a car designed for the track.

    • @dash-ryan
      @dash-ryan Год назад +1

      @@iamcarl4591 Not all 911's are built for the track. The GT3 is, but the GTS is daily drive-able. I agree there will always been a segment of the rich who will want a Mercedes, but for the performance enthusiasts that this car is targeting compared to the previous generation, there are better options. I wanted this car so bad and when I found it how much it cost, I purchased a C8 Corvette Stingray at MSRP (it was a customer order not dealer stock order that's how I was able to get it at MSRP) and I get more performance, fun and attention here in Canada than that SL ever could. In North America - one of Merc's largest market - there are too many other options for people to select over the SL. That's why I say it's going to be a financial dud for Mercedes. If you really want an AMG, wait until the AMG CLE Cabrio comes out and this SL will fade away. Or if you like the tech, get a AMG GLC or C-Class, both great choices over this bloated vehicle. And, of course, there's the next generation AMG GT just around the corner.

    • @iamcarl4591
      @iamcarl4591 Год назад +2

      @@dash-ryan To be honest, I don't even think the c8 is compared with SL since these are in complete different target but ok.
      The 911, my experience of driving a Carrera and a base model GT. I prefer driving the GT. The 911 have basically no storage area and the rear engine configuration is scary when driven hard on Hong Kong's mountain pass. Also, I think you underestimated the target audience of the SL. There's lots of wealthy people complaining the GT being too firm to daily. The SL certainly fixed that. The R8 is also becoming a history. Those R8 buyers might consider a SL when they want a change because it's 4wd.
