2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series Spotted Testing Again

Today our Teamspeed spies bring us another set of photos of the 2013 Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series during cold-weather testing. This is the same prototype we caught the other week sporting massive high-performance brakes and larger rear wheels which hint at some changes to the rear axle. The super-wide body kit gives us an idea of how much more aggressive this will be visually over the stock SLS.

Under the hood, rumors suggest the 6.3-litre V8 engine could deliver 600 hp and 677 Nm of torque. This will likely enable the car the new SLS variant to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and hit a top speed in excess of 322 km/h.

The German magazine Autobild reports that both a SLS AMG Black Series gullwing model and a roadster will be built, with both cars expected to be launched sometime in 2013, pricing is rumored to start at €260,000. Stay tuned for more updates soon!
