2010 Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG Black Series Hits the Dyno
2010 Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG Black Series Hits the Dyno - Mercedes Benz Luxury Coupe Review - Automobile Magazine
We took a Black Series to a chassis dyno to see what kind of power, exactly, it puts down. We were also looking forward to see the shape of the curve.

It costs $100,000 more than a regular SL65 AMG, so buyers of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series had better get a little somethin' for their money. And they do-with carbon-fiber body panels, a fixed roof, and styling that makes the Black Series look as though it's an escapee from a DTM race.

2010 Kia Soul - Kia Compact SUV Review - Automobile Magazine
What we have here is the first Kia that people will buy for reasons other than price, although the price is mighty attractive, too.

I took the Kia Soul for a 10-mile blast around Ann Arbor. First things first, the car looks great. It's obvious that Kia is trying to imitate Scion with the Soul's styling, but who cares? It's cool. Our test car's red interior is a bit much, but it works. It's great to see a Korean company having some fun with its designs.
