9- speed is going into the SL63 AMG? I thought that the AMGs are gonna stick with the 7-speed trans due to torque being too much. 9 speed would be great!
+Tim Tursonoff It is said that the facelift generally receives the 9G-Tronic. It is not directly stated if they mean that the SL63 is included in that one though, we ll have to wait for more information
Was für eine Schönheit, ich verstehe das ganze gehate überhaupt nicht. Meiner Meinung nach ist das mit dem R230 Mopf 2 also der ab 2008 der schönste SL überhaupt. Er wirkt seit dem Facelift deutlich schöner. Dazu noch der schöne alte M157 5,5. Wieso wurde beim Mopf eigentlich noch der ,,alte“ 5,5 Biturbo verbaut, kann mir das jemand sagen ?
With the new S-class cabriolet, the sales will definetley go down.Why would you buy an SL, when you can buy a S-Cabriolet which is by far more luxurious and technologically advanced, for around the same price...Just for a hard-top and sportier feel? This car has serious competition in this price range... California T(bit more expensive though), 911, R8 V8 ,Jaguar F-type and it s life got even thougher with thoose looks...This car is does not worth 180k euro!
+obsedatr6 Well the S-Class Coupé is kinda bulky, the question is if you wanna drive such a huge car or feel more comfortable with a smaller SL. Agreeing with you on the AMG version though, I d go for the basis SL
Facelift after 3 years? I am shocked how Mercedes has destroyed its SL legacy within a couple of years with a completely wrong model policy. The car is great to drive....but the pre face lift predecessor was such an ugly beast....Never ever have SL deteriorated so fast in Price as with the R231. This new version....eine Verzweiflungstat......R107,R129, R230 those where iconic models..... this one....perfect for chubby Golfers.....
+msobic It really is a shame even the quality car manufacturers tend to release face-lifts only couple of years after the initial launch of the particular model.
Kind of strange that their SL interior looks older than the rest of the Mercedes range. The new face looks nice though :)

I read somewhere that the AMG models will get a 9 speed transmission but it's still under development.
+///AMG Berg Good! It is about time.
+Tim Tursonoff It's going to be 7-speed for both SL63 and SL65 AMG.
so gorgeous
Is this car convertible only? Or is there a hard top?
+Daniel Sadjadian hardtop retractable always
+Autogefühl Do you know why they won't make a hard top only version?
+Daniel Sadjadian
Cuz there is the AMG GT

+msobic car cycles are about 7 to 8 year nowadays, so 3 years after release is not really an unplanned facelift
