Here we have one of the best cars Mercedes have ever made, The Mercedes Benz SLS AMG. It’s dramatic at a standstill, where it surprises onlookers when either of the gullwing doors lift smoothly from their locked-in positions revealing a cocoon of quilted leather that comes with the SLS, 6208cc naturally aspirated V8, massive, drilled brakes inside the sinister alloys built for arresting the drama – and there’s lots of it.
Then there’s the details: like the hard edges that define the muscle of this car, the darkened headlights and front brake-duct design that complement each other, and the way the door handles retract back to sit flush inside the body once the SLS has nodded to you that it’s locked, safe and secure.
There’s more, of course: the metallic, snarly, two-finger salute to subtlety, modesty and any intent of economy that is the stunning V8. Dare to push the start button and it instantly wakes up, jumping to full attention with an auto-rev as soon as it turns over, and is already breathing fire before you’ve had a chance to slot the chunky gear lever into D. Then, you’re faced with a choice of driving modes as the engine rumbles warmly, your adrenal glands reacting to the fact that you have so, so much firepower under you.
This is where the SLS is like no other car. A McLaren is faster, a Lambo more dramatic to look at, but nothing gives you the rush behind the wheel after a simple, quick flooring of the throttle. It’ll scare you in a good way, waking you up from the ordinary like a whip cracked across your back: it’s that sudden, dramatic, and explosive that you wonder why there aren’t more cars made like this. It’s so involving that you’ll trade the Bang and Olufsen’s clarity for that snarling V8’s track instead.
