First Drive: 2011 Mercedes Benz SLS AMG
2011 Mercedes Benz SLS AMG - First Drive Review - Autombile Magazine
The combination of gullwing doors and a Mercedes badge makes the SLS AMG an instant entry in automotive history.

"Ugly don't mean nuthin' when you're sleeping on Ralph Lauren sheets." Such was the dating mantra of an old friend who evaluated the attractiveness of potential mates solely by the number of zeroes in their portfolio balance. In automotive terms, we suspect, ugly don't mean nuthin' when you've got gullwing doors. Ugly is, truthfully, too strong of a word to describe the new Mercedes-Benz supercar, but so, too, is beautiful. Until you open the gullwing doors, that is. Then, suddenly, all the world stops and stares. The rear end of the SLS, which apparently was inspired by the Buick Reatta and the Acura CL coupe, becomes irrelevant. The widemouth-bass face even fades away, just like the wrinkles on that old man's liver-spotted, shaky hands when they're holding his shiny black American Express.inline_mediumwraptextright25876502/reviews/driven/0911_2011_mercedes_benz_sls_amg0911_06_z+2011_mercedes_benz_sLS_aMG+rear_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue
