The 464kW Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series will be launched in Australia in July. And, if you want one, you’ll need to scrounge together the small matter of $639,000.
That’s quite a lot of money really.
But you know the best part? An AUSmotive reader has confirmed with us he has ordered one. Better still, he’s promised us a drive. Assuming all goes as planned; happy days ahead!

When you could buy an exotic Ferrari or Lamborghini for that money, the guy either has a massive hard on for Merc or has more money than he knows what to do with.
I don’t agree Really. Every man and his dog can get his hands on a Ferrari or a Lambo for the same money (If he has it) but I doubt I’ll be lucky to ever see one of these in the flesh. Good on him I say. As far as I’m aware only 10 are coming to the country
Why doesn’t he buy all three. What a tight arse.
