The driving force behind this 2006 Mercedes SL 65 AMG is the
extremely powerful AMG 6.0-litre V-12 biturbo engine developing 612
hp and a maximum torque of 737.7 lbs-ft, making this still the most
powerful production Roadster in the world. This specific car has
been Renntech custome tuned! Squeezing out even more power with
numbers hitting 696 HP and 840 ft. lbs. of torque. The over-sized
intercooler and open race mufflers help round out the powerhouse!
Impressive evidence of the phenomenal power harnessed by the AMG
twelve-cylinder unit is provided by the 0-62 mph acceleration time
of just under 4 seconds. This car features modified AMG sports
suspension based on second-generation Active Body Control, specific
measures having been implemented to reduce body movements in
dynamic driving situations - to levels even lower than those
achieved by the outgoing models - without impairing the excellent
ride comfort. Greater agility comes courtesy of the enhanced
front-axle and the speed-sensitive power steering with a more
direct ratio and new valve control logic. This SL 65 AMG is
equipped with newly developed AMG high-performance brakes which
ensure optimum application of the brake pressure, extremely short
stopping distances and outstanding resistance to fading. The front
axle boasts large composite brake discs with six-piston aluminum
fixed calipers. On a visual level, the new-generation AMG Roadsters
are distinguishable by their discreetly updated AMG body styling,
including more dynamically styled AMG front aprons with an even
more pronounced wedge shape. In addition, the front apron of the
Mercedes SL 65 AMG also incorporates side air outlets allowing
optimal flow through the auxiliary engine-oil cooler. Further
unobtrusive yet highly effective model enhancement measures include
an AMG-specific radiator grille with black louvres. Every light on
this car has been tinted as well as the windows to give it that
sinister look. As well as keep you cool on those hot summer days. A
front carbon fiber air dam keeps with the sports styling of this
car but also supplies the down force at higher speeds. Not to be
outdone, the interior of this AMG Roadsters also sports an even
more dynamic and premium-quality look. New genuine carbon-fiber
trim elements add just the right degree of sportiness and reflect
AMG's successful involvement in the world of motorsport. The AMG
ergonomic sports steering wheel with its specially moulded rim is
now fitted with silver-coloured aluminium AMG shift paddles.
Further features include the AMG main menu on the instrument
cluster, which displays the currently engaged gear and recommended
upshifts plus either the engine oil temperature, the battery
voltage or the RACETIMER. The new RACETIMER function allows the
driver to record lap times on private racing circuits, storing not
only the time for the fastest lap but also the average and top
speeds as well as the lap length. The AMG sports seats, interior
door panels and armrests are upholstered in fine nappa leather. 20"
Savany aluminum racing wheels are wrapped in brand new Hancook
tires. You can view this 2006 Mercedes SL 65 AMG in greater detail
