Whether we're talking about lap times or acceleration times, the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series is the fastest three-pointed star model in the Stuttgart manufacturer's current lineup.
It's about 70 kilograms (154 pounds) lighter than a “regular” SLS AMG, its normally-aspirated, 6.2-liter V8 engine develops a staggering 631 horsepower and it has a body kit that looks like it's been taken straight from the SLS AMG GT3 customer racing car.

Some people don't like all the attention that the front splitters and rear wing might bring, but since they come with such an awesome car everybody just sits quiet and accepts them.

Not this man in Germany though, as he was photographed by AutoGespot user Damors somewhere in Berlin while driving what is probably the cleanest-looking SLS AMG Black Series in the world.

Even though what looks like the Fire Opal Red paint job and the wide bodykit kind of draw about as much attention as a clown on fire, the lack of front splitter and rear wing make it look like the SLS AMG equivalent of a Q-car, if there even is such a thing.
