  | Correct the SLS is why we didn't get a SL63 Black Series. The SL65 Black Series is likely the last hurrah for the current AMG V12 and maybe for the AMG V12 period. The best car here IMO is the 599 period, but I want the Mercedes. M

| Hell would freeze over before I chose an overpowered juggernaut with a 5 speed auto over the best of Porsche and Ferrari. As good as it is to look at as well as to drive (to a point), the SL65 AMG BS is flawed from the outset against these classy, pedigreed machines.
