For 2009 Mercedes-Benz has introduced its most powerful road car to date, the SL 65 AMG Black Series. It features a 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 pumping out 661 bhp and 738 lb-ft torque. Weight has been reduced by using a carbon fiber hood, fenders, fixed roof, and trunk, cutting weight by 550 pounds. The body receives aggressive changes including larger ducts to feed the engine, widened body work, and a dynamic rear spoiler. Performance is astounding, including a potential top speed of 220 mph (although it is limited to 199 mph), and 60 mph can be reached in less then four seconds.
