After hanging out with his stylist and confidante, Guiseppe Franco, at Cafe Roma, the ex government of California was spotted getting behind the wheel of a band new Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster. This is a powerful drop-top supercar, powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V8 front-mid mounted engine with 571 hp.

The engine is mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, which enables the car to accelerate from standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.7 seconds and hit a limited top speed of 317 km/h (197 mph).

This bad boy comes with a starting price of well over $200,000, and that’s before you get the extras.

Since his term as Governor has ended, Schwazenegger has been supercharging his movie career back into life, and he’s not shy with his media appearances either. While looking for information about his car, we found a video from 2010 in which he seems to be enjoying the SLS at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. Looks like he’s really living the life!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
