Monterey 2008: SL65 AMG Black Series in the flesh!

We haven't seen any photos of the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series except for the press photos and a few wallpapers we scrounged up. As far was we know, no one has actually seen the car in person outside of Mercedes-Benz let alone photographed it. So imagine our surprise when we spotted one headed our direction while we were trying to crash the Ferrari-owners-invited-only North American debut of the Ferrari California in Monterey. We instantly forgot about trying to catch a glimpse of the Ferrari and turned our lenses towards the Black Series. Fortunately, Mercedes-Benz had no problem with us taking photographs of the car, and we were able to get plenty of detailed pictures. Enjoy the high resolution gallery below!

My lord that car is a MONSTER. I'd much rather have one of these over an SLR.

Simply amazing. I love this car. I would love it even more if I could get one with a 6speed manual transmission. So aggressive looking.

Thanks for posting. Wish I were there this year.

Soooo badass! That interior is pretty sick! The only MB I'd take over this would be the CLK DTM AMG.

Nice catch!! That car is badass...

I'm in Monterey, too. Watched/photo'ed the Tour de Elegance this morning, checked out the pre-auction stuff tonight. Going to watch Historics racing practice tomorrow...
