Mercedes-Benz USA has announced pricing information for its most uber supercar, the 2014 SLS AMG Black Series, which is set to go on sale nationwide next month.
Powered by the range-topping 6.2-liter V8 mill that delivers 622 HP and 468 lb-ft of torque, the Black Series edition boasts 37 more horses than the regular SLS AMG. This enables the car to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in only 3.5 seconds. But that’s not all. The Black Series also features an aerodynamic kit, a rear diffuser, a carbon fiber wing and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
Impressed? Want one? Then you’ll just have to look for at least $275,000 in your bank account, not including the $1,800 destination fee.
"The new SLS AMG Black Series is a perfect study in the one hundred percent transfer of technology and engineering from motorsport to road. We have drawn inspiration from the worldwide success of the SLS AMG GT3 customer sport racing car on both a conceptual and a technological level. Boasting numerous lightweight components and fascinating dynamics, our fifth Black Series model guarantees pure, unadulterated 'Driving Performance.' The SLS AMG Black Series is the ultimate choice for fast laps and a highly emotional driving experience," says Ola Källenius, Chairman of Mercedes-AMG.
