Mercedes-Benz Australia have just announced a Manufacturer’s List Pricing (MLP) for the SLS AMG ‘Gullwing’ of $464,000.

F1 Safety Car gives you wings
Mercedes-Benz are pretty chuffed with their new F1 Safety Car. So much so they’ve written a long press release and released a bunch of new pics. The car, of course, is the SLS AMG ‘Gullwing’. And this is the fifteenth year that Mercedes has headed the field with Safety Car duties, the only company to […]
January 2010 showed good signs for the automotive industry in Australia.

The new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG ‘Gullwing’ is about to go into full production mode. Mind, to make a car that can drive upside down you can’t use any old production line.

Yeah, sure it’s most likely a fake, but this ad/viral/promo clip for the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG ‘Gullwing’ is worth a gander all the same.

Apart from the car itself there’s nothing too special about that. Until you see the car was on show on the museum’s roof, some 42 metres from ground […]
For his weekly video update Chris Harris spent some quality time with the Mercedes-Benz SLS Electric Drive. That’s an all-electric 552kW/1000Nm supercar, in case you’d forgotten. Okay, the downsides are familiar, the range is no match for a conventionally powered SLS and at around 2200kg this car is a lot heavier as well. But just […]
