So it's not the next generation SL as mentioned a few days earlier.

It's the AMG SL65 Black Series. Wonder how much power and torque this monster will have.

This will further hurt the sales of the SLR since it will most likely out handle and perform the fable V8 Kompressor SLR-722 with a bi-turbo V12. There's just no replacement for displacement and also cylinder counts.

Ever wonder how Lindsy Lohan and Paris Hilton handles all that power when they get their hands on one of these.

AS usual, too heavy. The CLK Black bombed all the automotive driving tests.
