Over 1000Nm, it will test your rear tires, despite the limited slip differential especially designed for this 65 AMG. If you ask me why I chose an SL65 instead of a Ferrari or a couple of Porsche, or even to a normal SL63, I would answer that I like to be comfortable, fast and above all, I do not want to tell the whole town when I go somewhere. The SL does not hang posters as you pass by, but if you push heavily on the gas, you will rule them all. Without exception. That’s why I think this is not overvalued.
