My vote goes for the SL55 in this comparison.

I don't like the exterior profile of the M5. Looks kind of weird with that duck tail in the rear. Neither do I like the interior with the strange and sharp edges and kind of plastic looking center console. Not ok for a luxurious GT car.

Although the SL55 is a little old now I still like the looks of the car and the interior looks better than on the M6 IMO. Also the hard top cabrio and the torque of the SL55 makes it my favorite.

No contest IMO.......The SL is better looking and much more classy than that "butt ugly" M6, even if it does have a V10.

If you are looking from behind, you don't really notice the lines as much especially in black, IMO anyway . From the side profile, it just doesn't look right for me. The front end is alright though

Re: AutoZeitung: BMW M6 Cabriolet vs Mercedes SL55 AMG

Neither.
Cabrios are too much poseurish.
Lower weight, better aerodynamics, superiour rigidity shouldn't be sacrificied like
this for cool it looks, or how much Paris Hilton likes them.
