Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Review

Reviving the legendary 300SL Gullwing of 1954 wasn’t something Mercedes was going to take lightly. Rehashing iconic cars is a risky business after all – just look at VW’s first attempt at a Beetle redux. But Mercedes knew the SLS project was in safe hands, AMG taking it on to create its first wholly designed new car. So, now we’ve had a couple of years to get used to the SLS how does it measure up? Well, in a case of history repeating the gullwinged coupe will shortly be joined by a roadster version. And though open-air motoring will always have a thrill factor, like the 300SL, the SLS is defined by those gullwing doors.
