Although I understood about 2 words of this - it is pretty clear that Mercedes means business with this one

Sounds like any old AMG.

The guy testing the car says it's the first car entirely developed by AMG without Mercedes help. Mostly he was surprised that the usual comfort that you find in the other Merc AMG models isn't as good in the SLS and instead it's a pure sportscar to the core. As you see the guy really likes the sound but I agree with some of the above posters that it sounds like most other AMG models, and I don't mean this in a positive way.

The things I like most about the car is the power output, the dual clutch and the lack of comfort to the advantage of sportiness. Nice progress for AMG, but where are the standard carbon ceramic breaks?
