It is conventionally pretty—but really quite characterless and predictable. Will serve the elite peeps well as a brunch commuter LOL

It's bigger than the R231 in every dimension, never mind the R230. Love the R232 but I'd take the outgoing GTC roadster over it given the SLS connection (long hood) and Aventador-rivaling width.

It is much bigger than a SLK, 20+ inches longer. R230 SL is about 7 inches shorter. This is the largest SL produced |

Are people seriously saying anything less than spectacular in response to its appearance? Either we have some hardcore bias here and people are refusing to admit beauty when it smacks them in the face, or people are generally blind.
This car is freaking gorgeous.

They're finally arriving at dealers in very small numbers, cannot wait to see one of these beauties in person!

Surprised how loud it is and the pops/bangs for an OPF car. Looks gorgeous in Alpine Gray too, I need to drive one of these bad boys!

Finally saw one in person, just beautiful. This one was featured in Moonlight White Magno (Matte) which looked fantastic.

Good review, although prefer the other guy on the channel, this guys voice annoys me.
My friend just purchased a fully loaded SL 63 so hopefully I'll get behind the wheel of it soon. My dealer had a 63 in Starling Blue over Macchiato, absolutely stunning.

I was a bit surprised the guy in the video complained about the harsh suspension. Not sure if this is SL 63 specific or what.
