2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG – Second Drive

November 4th, 2009 admin

A Hallelujah spin in the New Church of the revived Gullwing. Let’s start with an unassailable premise: in a corporate history overflowing with exceptional automobiles, few if any have more enduring cachet than the Mercedes-Benz 300SL gullwing coupes of 1955–57.

We spot the upcoming CLS (mostly) uncovered; and our house remains divided. Born in 2004, the Mercedes-Benz CLS defines sleek, its elegant body seemingly drawn entirely from the simple sweep of the body-side crease. In the car business, falling in love with a design is dangerous, but we did. As previous spy shots (and one frightening concept said...

Mercedes changes the nose on its not-a-minivan, but leaves pretty much everything else alone. What Is It? We’re not exactly sure. This not-an-SUV, not-a-wagon, not-even-a-crossover is Mercedes-Benz’s version of the people mover. Seats for six are standard and an optional second-row bench increases capacity to seven. With the seats down the...
