More details of the Mercedes-Benz Gullwing supercar

From what can be seen from exclusive spy shots the Mercedes-Benz Gullwing is making ready to get into the show areas. Sporting much less disguise, and highlighting ‘gullwing’ doors that are ready for production, the new representative machine is coming into the process of the last stage of its development.

Captured as it was test running in icy northern Europe, this most current copy is boasting some interesting up till now unseen elements as well as a strip of LED daytime running lights located just beneath the headlights and brakes that are set for production, which highlight big discs that are cross-drilled. Regarding the body itself, styling is anticipated to be inspired by the first 300SL Gullwing, with a huge Mercedes star placed in the center of the grille. On the interior, the vehicle receives a paddle shift semi-automatic box, with 6 gears at the very least.

I don't know. I'm sure it would look better in red with gold racing stripes

I don't care if a new variant of the "Gullwing" is coming out but nothing will be more precious and valuable as the original 300SL Gullwing. That is one car I would like to have in my collection, the original supercar.

Anyways I can't wait for the new one to come. Should be exciting.

FINALLY, a true MERC!!! Hopefully it won't have any Hyundai-esque design moves. Keep it real Merc, keep it GERMAN.

Personally, I don't like remakes of Classic cars. Classics should stay classics. Sort of taints the legacy imo..The Gullwing is probably the most beautiful car ever made.
