2009 Mercedes SL 63 AMG

A couple of weeks ago Mercedes-Benz unveiled the 2009 SL 63 AMG which is destined to be the perfect substitute for the SL 55 AMG. Mercedes wanted a change in the engine sector and they kissed goodbye the 510 HP supercharged as they welcomed the new 6.2-liter V8 which produces 538 HP and 465 lb-ft torque.The new AMG model features a new front fascia, new side-gills and larger air intakes, but these are just some of the additions. We should specify that the engine was entirely manufactured by AMG and for it, Mercedes prepared an innovative seven-speed transmission called MCT( Multi-Clutch Transmission) which is a combination of a regular and F1 gearboxes.

Mercedes used us with very good optional packages and they didn’t let us down - customers can opt for 19-inch twin spoke wheels, ABC-actve high-performance suspension, vented ceramic front-brake discs and AIRSCARF. The last is an innovative extra heating system which sends warm air through vents with the purpose to extend the open-air driving season.

Watch some pictures of the SL63 AMG in the gallery below and for more informations check the press release.
