Tiff said it hit 0-60 in 3.8 seconds which is really impressive considering this car Kerb Weight is 3562.48 lb. I'm not sure why this new MB SLS AMG weight so much.

MB definitely make some to baddest and meanest sportscar out there but I don't most of their cars because of the design. Especially, the exterior. I only cars I like from MB is the current CLS 4 dr coupe and CL coupe.
