She looks ready to party with her hipster friends, wearing skinny jeans and a loose white shirt and green army shirt. She pulls off her look well, just like a Janice Joplin of the modern age. Of course, Joplin never had a black SL but those are just details when you are Miley Cyrus.
The SL is a two-seat roadster manufactured by Mercedes since 1954. The name ‘SL’ comes from the the German Sport Leicht, or Sport Light, and was first applied to the 300SL 'Gullwing'. Of the other A-listers that own or have had such a car, we can name Lauren Conrad, Gerard Butler, Linsey Lohan or Rafael Nadal.
Miley's car has a 5.5-liter V8 engine under the bonnet that provides decent power and torque, as well as an aggressive snarl under hard throttle. With 382 hp on tap, the SL reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) from a standstill in 4.8 seconds, and continues on to a top speed of 157 mph (252 km/h) before the governor cuts in. The seven-speed automatic transmission provides smooth shifts, whether you decide to do the shifting yourself via paddles on the steering wheel or trust the car to do it for you. The SL does a great job of being a comfortable cruiser and a back-road stormer, but big money is a prerequisite for ownership.
