Looks great ! I will have to look at one when they finally arrive on dealer lots.. if ever... I wonder if I fit as well as I did in my 2018 SL63, Im 6'5" tall.. Not sure if this new SL has as much room or not.
Londoner living in Arizona.Just bought E53 AMG Coupe Starling Blue Mango exterior. Love AMG interiors with best technology. Again beautiful car congratulations on SL55
Add the crest. Beautiful spec. Can you do a video on maintenance of all your cars, how long you keep them for (factors that play into the decison), what you choose to drive on certain occasions and why, etc.
Gorgeous.. I ordered the identical spec for my dealer, (Obsidian, tartufo exclusive interior.. Carbon fiber, extended night and ccb) albeit a 63.. Stunning car, congrats!
May I ask how you can afford all these cars? I am not jealous, I am just curious, as you only have 332k subscribers and the cars that you keep collecting are very very expensive. Congrats from a M4 Competition Driver from Germany!
I think he has another business or something. Not all his income is generated from RU-vid if I’m not mistaken, can’t be sure though. I agree it doesn’t seem RU-vid income would be enough 🤷🏽♂️
You went with the 55 and not the 63. I’m surprised and impressed! I really expected you to get the 63. The 55 is the right choice for this car. You want this car to lean more to comfort than to stiff high performance suspension. Congratulations!
I'm definitely a car enthusiast (watch many RU-vid channels for reviews/entertainment), and it is truly uplifting to see some of you do well. While I may not possess the financial means to own beautifully crafted vehicles from amazing car makers I honestly love seeing you and some of the others do so well. Keep doing it, and much love from California
Very nice car! As an owner of an older model SL55 I still prefer the hard top. I do however love all of the new updated tech in the car and it’s sounds absolutely amazing. Congratulations!
OK, it's been 2 months, still no review and drive update. I took delivery of my SL63 yesterday, so I'm curious how we'd set up our cars differently. Let's go!
This must be your first SL, I'm certain. Massaging seats have been an SL standard this entire century. I wish you drove a R230 or R231 to compare the roof refinement against. Black on brown is definitely the spec the R232 want's to be.
That was one of the most comprehensive walk around during a car delivery I’ve ever seen on YT. Usually it’s people making faces and saying the same basic info 10x over.
You are just brilliant - the way you told the warm story about keeping plastics on things. And your feelings about these cars come through the computer screen like no other reviewer that I can think of. Thanks for this. Enjoy. And your car is distracting me from my love of my current S63 AMG Cabrio. I will let you sort out this new model on our behalf and maybe in a couple of years... add one to the stable. Brilliant car.
Bro I love your content. You opened my eyes up to Porsche heritage and broke it all down for me. I say this in a respectful way, you are underrated. P.S: I was hoping that the ridge would've given you a larger discount code like they do for some others
What a nice specced car, and a smart SL history overview. Removing the plastic would have the unboxing even more à propos. I’d put the sticker on the back of a MacBook screen as a logo. Really cool video, thank you.
@@RemoveBeforeRace GT Black Series might compete. It is angrier, but the SL is more elegant with super long headlights and backlights. BTW, do you plan to tune the car to 800 HP or something?
Congratulations bro! I have an SL63 R230. This is an amazing masterpiece you have. I might have to buy the new SL whenever it comes in USA. One of the best SL I seen so far :)
Congratulations Raz, that is an incredible spec, I am green with envy mate. The brown and carbon interior is just incredible. Put the Affalterbach logo on!
nice, i like the spec, we did one review with light blue interior, our next one with red interior will come next week. i think you spec looks great and stealthy!! 🔥🔥⬛
First of all, big congratiolations to your new SL 55. Looks awesome. I work at a AMG performance center in Sweden and from just using the new SL 63 for a couple of days in normal heat - I noticed that I really burnt my finger off every time I tried to pull up / down the roof while driving in the sun or when I came out to the car after a cup of coffee... The keyfob really doesnt work all the time so after living with the car for a while - would you not appreciate a fysical button to open / close the roof? I really cant understand why they removed it. Also I expereienced a lots of squeeky sounds from the dashbord etc like the car was not properly put together, but this is something they should be able to sort out tho.. How about yours? Any baby sicknesses? Do you think the power of the 55 is more than enough? Hope you will enjoy your new SL and that it will stay in your collection for a while. Love the combination. Very subtile.
Was really hoping that it was going to be a silver SL… looks great however! Personally I’d get it in grandpa spec in something like dark blue with caramel interior.
I made sacrifices to buy a 2020 BMW 3 series G31 330i and suddenly I lost all interest because my car will have nowhere near the technology that you have in this... I never knew that some of these goodies are even available in a car... Very good presentation, you got yourself a new subscriber.
Congrats on your new AMG SL brother that are looks increadible. To be honest I am very eager to see the second gen AMG GT which is the car i want to own in the future.
BEAUTIFUL!! If it were my car I would drop it a hair and flush the wheels out a bit as the only thing I'm not a fan of is how sunken in they are to the fenders, especially the front. If they were more flush it would make it look even more aggressive. Regardless, its beautiful so congrats!
Oh my God I’m so jealous, and can’t wait to order mine in the near future!! I think that is a perfect place for the badge!! Please for the love of God takeoff the screen protector!!
Damn, I didn't think having a YT channel with a few hundred K subs could make you afford all these new cars! no doubt i'm in the wrong business hahah. joke aside, I love the channel, enjoy your passion mate!
I bet your TV remote is plastic wrapped 😉 Great looking car, from the front side view I'm seeing hints of Mustang and the rear lines (roof up) a touch of Bentley. Probably just me. I'm sure your dad's looking down very proud of his son living his life to the max 👊👏
Great looking car, it even gave me a bit of envy as a Porsche guy, but good grief that steering wheel is extraordinarily busy. I'd say busy to distraction.
SL55 Issues You mention you’ve had a few issues with your SL55. Can I ask for an update? My SL55 is back at the dealership with numerous issues, sunroof, windows, boot and the battery drain. Thanks, Col
Well done being able to be able to buy this Mercedes and one can assume you are a total Mercedes fanatic. However I would say the Lexus LC500 V8 is much better looking, more exclusive than a Mercdes SL and I suspect more reliable and cheaper to maintain.
Beautiful car! But my only complaint is the convertible area in the back. It doesn't scream a luxury finish with the fabric shown. On my clk55 convertible it has an elegance of a boat design to it which seems very appropriate to drop tops. But other than that it's a beautiful car.
Congratulations my guy, I just found a convertible I've been trying to find for 8 years now and I finally found it in pristine showroom condition 1 owner older gentlemen always had it covered in a garage, an infiniti g37 convertible hardtop Bloomingdale's edition the rare one that infiniti only made 200 of, red leather interior, real red woodgrain trim, real aluminum buttons, platinum graphite paint on 19inch stock chrome wheels, the car is unbelievable but I'm still trying to get use to people staring and asking what car it is,anyways enjoy my guy good stuff 👍
Congrats/mubarak ho bruv! Sexy car, sporty exterior and classy interior! Love the interior spec! - those seats are beautiful! Gotta say, this is probably my fav of your recent cars of the last several years! Though I'm a BMW man, love that tech and MBUX set-up stuff. I love the 2+2 set-up and very cool that it's back. Yes the crest looks great there! DO IT! :D While we are on the SL-love-fest - my auntie/uncle finally decided to sell their 1976 SL 450 (maroon-red)...they once sold it prematurely, but got it back but now it's for good. Great memories sitting in the back as a little kid (yes barely any foot room but we were small), but I got to drive it once, and oh man, gorgeous machine. Looking forward to the full living-with review!
Why do mercedes do that to the spec ? Why are some options never available in the U.K ? Its not a right hand drive thing, as Ireland normally has a way better options list.
