Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG
At the top of the scale in terms of price and sportiness, the SLS is a dream car for many. The first model designed and assembled entirely by the AMG high performance division, the SLS delivers colourful performances due to its 583-hp 6.2L V8. The cabriolet adds a touch of class while the coupe’s attention-grabbing roof-hinged doors are reminiscent of the legendary Gullwing.
