Mercedes-Benz SL
Perfect for romantic getaways, this two-seat grand touring car shines with AMG styling and massive 19- or 20-inch wheels. In a matter of seconds, the power-folding hard top turns the SL from a sleek coupe into a classic roadster. Rich leather, wood, aluminum, bamboo and carbon fibre surfaces are all available to jazz up the interior. Selection continues under the long hood with potent V6, V8 and V12 engines delivering anywhere between 362 and 621 horsepower.
