I loved the Mercedes-AMG SL63. Loved it. Loved it in a deeply unhealthy, screw-the-planet, vote Republican, question-the-inner-fabric-of-your-being sort of way.

Holy crap. The SL63 sounds like no other Mercedes-Benz. It goes like no other Mercedes-Benz – actually, it goes like an SL65 I guess, and maybe a few others.

The Mercedes SL63 AMG, oddly enough, is a 518-horsepower retractable-roof two-seater for people who don’t need to show off.

Still, $150k buys you a lot of sports car elsewhere (not to mention AMG’s mythic depreciation). One wonders if the SL63’s a bit pedestrian at the price.
