You can find brand new ones still sitting on the dealer's showrooms. The car didn't sell very well........

The car is Sick! But for that price you can buy a GTR and a ZR1 with money to spare! Or just a Lamborghini or Ferrari...sorry MB, that's just to much...

surprisingly those abominations are OEM kit. who'd have though AMG would be capable of designing such terribly suited wheels when they're capable of producing stunning five spokers on every other AMG model.

i've seen a bunch of these at the Festival of Speed in FL. they have presence but that's about it. too porky, too pricy.

Plus, look at the wimpy gear shift knob...for a SL Black I'd expect something demonic and made out of a marble foyer carved from space mountain!

Hate the wheels too, and you are right about all the other good looking 5 spokes they make. I think if this car was better priced and didnt have such a bad ride as has been pointed out then it would be something. I have to admit I love the looks of it.

They own the pavement so I think it's okay.
