I had my first close look at a SLS AMG the other day. It was costing a mere £172000 but I believe that with a little more effort, you can get that up to nearer £190000 (though ashtray and lighter only cost £30 extra!). Maybe there is something wrong with me but the SLS just did not do it for me. The interior is akin to sitting in a coffin. With the rear spoiler up, it just looks plain silly. I am curious to know whether I am a lone voice in the wilderness.
 
I quite like the SLS in isolation and I think it is likely to ''grow'' in it's appeal. MB and AMG have history, reputation and a reasonably comprehensive service network but.....would you buy an SLS in preference to a 458 or the all British built MP4?

Got to say the SLS doesn't do it for me at all either - at that money I would take several different options first...
Mind you, 15foye, we might be the odd ones out - I was outside a hotel the other week in Marbella (in a place where Ferrari's etc are commonplace) and almost every bloke that walked passed stopped to check out the SLS. One or two even took pictures!!!

I think its because it's still relatively newish...
