Was a bit startled by number four, but I never realized the price gap between the SLR and its competitors. As an extra fact, I remember how reviewers praised the SLR for its road manners and comfort, apart from the SBC brakes which some didn't like. It would mean you would prefer to drive your SLR more often because of that fact and the cheaper price, versus the competitors which would more likely be garage-kept investments. Also, surprised at the C43. You'd think clean examples would go for a lot more than that. But I guess being overshadowed by the E36 M3 because of dynamics, and the "old man" styling of the W202 (which I personally prefer) kind of hurts its demand.

Yes!!! #1 baby. SL55 AMG is an absolute weapon. VRP Pulley and cooling with a tune from Eurocharged and I’m doing 200mph and dominating mustangs and corvettes without issue. The ABC suspension is awesome but yes it can be a little costly if something goes wrong. But this level of performance comes with a $200k price tag new so it’s all about perspective. A hardtop convertible is also more secure than the fabric ones on the new model. Just do good maintenance and you’re in business.
@gregs86852 жыл бұрын
$200k?? You wouldn’t need to spend anywhere near that much to keep up with your tuned sl55. An M5 Competition or E63S are less than $120k. A 992 GTS is $149k, a Turbo is $175k, and the new Corvette Z06 will be around $100k. I don’t think you’re dominating any GT500s or ZL-1s either lol. Those are $65-75k. Finally, where are you driving 200 mph in the US?
@Undercover19872 жыл бұрын
SL55 is very powerful yes and you can even get it so around 550-580HP with a tune (but please dont forget to cool it properly). But the SL still weighs at around appr. 2.100kg and a corvette, even the c6 6.2 coupe weighs at around 1.500kg with 436hp factory. If you tune it, you can get easily 480hp out of it. Now i cant imagine that the sl will be quicker with the older transmission and that more weight. I owned a cl55 supercharger (crazy fast) and i own a c6 6.2 coupe from 2009, so i think i can compare them. The vette is stronger stock. But the mercedes is miles ahead when it comes to interior and build quality, no question. But then again, the c6 is easier to maintain and more efficient

I have a 2021 GLA 35! It's a baby engine AMG but it comes with all the fun of an AMG! It's the perfect amount of power and get up and go! I don't feel like I have more horsepower than I can use like other AMGS i test drove

2014-2016 CLS 63s AMG is also a great option. Sold for $100,000 MSRP and can get ones with 50-70k miles for as low as $32,000... 577 hp btw

I have a 2009 ML AMG 6.3. To drop a naturally aspirated V-8 racing engine good for 503 ponies into amid size suv is bonkers ! And I love it !! Aerodynamics of a brick , but driving skill , gobs of power and fat grippy wheels will see me through !!😃

I recently was at an oldtimer auction, there was a c43 (first car in the vid) that drove and ran fine, it had some rust, but went for 4k (around 200k miles)… maybe I shouldve gone for it.

I think a big missed opportunity for the list is the C450 amg they were only sold for one year 2016 they look great have good tech and ~370hp from the factory with a highly tunable engine that’s the same as the one in the current c43 amg. Very reliable as well with just regular servicing and the kicker you can get pretty low miles examples for 35-45k which is a great price considering what you get.

I could never have afforded one new but I bought a black 2005 E55 just like the one in this video 2 years ago and it has gone up slightly in value from what I paid for it. I have done a few mods such as a 77mm pulley and RaceIQ tune and I replaced the AirMatic with adjustable coil overs when one of the front struts blew last year. It was rust free, had excellent service history and the 2 previous owners only drove it 6500 miles a year (only 98k miles when I bought it). It had a minor fender bender in its history and it has some less than perfect paint work in a few places that I have polished and corrected to my satisfaction (looks good from 10 feet away) so it’s not a super-pristine example that I’m committing a sacrilege changing but I have kept to mostly performance or upgrade mods and kept the exterior completely stock minus a set of black headlights and dark tinted windows. I spent around $2k the first year doing maintenance (fluids, tires, trans service and conductor plate, etc.) and replacing worn suspension parts and the coil overs were $1500 this year but I have driven this car over 1000 miles in a weekend at 90+mph with no drama or surprises and I am still amazed at how good this car is after all these years.
