No problem, they are ticky to see the differences. What you saw though, they call it the green monster or green hell as it destroyed the Nurburgring on lap times.

That color is awesome. Would be perfect for an E supercar. After comparing the 2 I definitely prefer the elegance of the SLS over the aggressive looks of the AMG GT R. But would be smitten driving either. With the enabling that goes on here; my incoming will be in a few weeks ��

This car had a short production run, and in hindsight, if I could have kept it, I should have,. In fact, I have been quietly searching to replace that car I sold. If you can find one the way you like it, get it. You will be over the moon happy with it. I will try to post some pics of the car I once had.

Although I love this car Nick, I truly think your Ferrari 812 suits you best

It‘s a misconception that low production numbers guarantee collector‘s value.

IMO the demand is the driver when something is becoming collectible and valuable.
Only when the demand for a certain product outweights the supply - values rise.
If a low supply meets a low demand - prices remain low.

In the case of the SLS: There will always be a significant demand for a Gullwing Mercedes, particularly when it‘s as gorgeous as the SLS.

It popped up when I googled green SLS in my defense the color was wild but the Red/White Countache following behind ended up stealing my attention. Always good motivation to go home and work harder when I have to get back in my clapped out V6 Mustang whilst looking at cars that have more power running on half their cylinders

Mustangs are awesome bro.

Great cars with tons of history and sizzle.

Enjoy it.

Amazing car! Thanks for that as it further solidifies my direction

SLS, all the way. Gullwing doors, Amazing N/A V8, 1st car entirely built by AMG and looks like pretty much nothing else.

Prices bottomed out around 2015, where you could pick one up for ~120-130k; virtually impossible now for a good condition, less than 20k mile car. Just last year, you could find 50-80 listed on Autotrader, now you can find about 20-30 and the prices are climbing.

Buy one, don't wreck it, or throw 50k miles on it & assuming the economy doesn't completely crash, you'll own it for free, or possibly make money.

Exactly this, I bought mine in 2011, drove it the way it should be driven.....HARD....put 27,000km of bliss and sold it almost 6 years later and made over 50kCAD.....nuts. The dealer that bought it from me had it for about a year before it sold. Now, I am looking for it

[Mifune]

SLS... BY A WIDE MARGIN.

that amg is one of my favorite models... I wanted to build a completely stripped down road race AMG, but I am afraid that might never happen.

I especially love that GOLD color... the money!

[wjed]

For me SLS

[CoveWatch]

That SLS is something else.. easily that if those were the only two options

[5Zigen]

Coming from a NSX owner, SLS hands down.

[GB-man]

SLS or stretch for 458

[DanD.1]

SLS, but I would also look for a clean 996 gt2.

[Dr.Brian]

SLS all the way. No question. They’re already on the rise and MB doesn’t seem like they’re bringing the gull wing doors back again anytime soon.
