Droptop Merc

2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster

So, the SLS AMG Roadster wasn't at the New York Auto Show. That's alright, because the car is already set to debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. Even before then, Mercedes plan to reveal the car worldwide this summer. Everything you love about the regular SLS AMG is in the roadster, except the gullwing doors. The 6.2-liter 563 horsepower V8 engine's still there. The formula one-styled interior is there as well. The 0 to 60 time might be slightly slower as the roadster will gain some weight. But, ideally, you'll have more fun in this car since it's a droptop. As for the price, expect it to go up as the roadster gathers some extra features that the regular hardtop doesn't have. But still, who wouldn't want the most powerful non-turbo V8 roadster in the world? Probably Alan Sugar, who only loves old man soup and old Rolls-Royce's. Check out my Facebook page for more photos.
