An AMG icon, and still a car to drive
The SLS AMG Coupé (C197) was the first completely independent road car developed by Mercedes-AMG. It combines classic sports-car proportions with modern engineering: a front-mid-engine layout, aluminium spaceframe and the hand-built naturally aspirated M159 V8.
Today, the SLS AMG is appreciated by enthusiasts and collectors who want emotion, engineering and usability in one memorable car. The original SLS AMG Coupé and the later SLS AMG GT both have strong appeal — especially when condition, originality and history are right.
