The production of the iconic Mercedes-Benz 300 SL “Gullwing” had ceased in 1963. Being such a legendary vehicle, Mercedes decided to honour it by designing a new supercar some 47 years later.
No doubt whose successor the C 197-series Mercedes SLS was. Like the 300 SL it had gullwing doors and its performance left many other vehicles far behind .Equipped as standard with the most powerful naturally aspirated engine worldwide: a 6.2 litre V8 with originally 420 kW (571 hp) and later up to 464 kW (631 hp). The SLS was also the first Mercedes to be designed entirely by AMG in Affalterbach, who also manufactured the engine, while the chassis and aluminium body were produced by Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria. The final assembly took place with Mercedes’ headquarters in Sindelfingen. The car was a great success, specially amongst celebrities like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Boris Becker and Cristiano Ronaldo. It also won numerous international awards. Being a true heir to its predecessor, the SLS AMG turned to a memorable classic by the time production was ended in 2014.
