5 reasons to buy the 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG
1. V8 engine
If you’re looking for power, look no further. The 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT enjoys all the benefits of a 6.2L V8 engine, which produces 583 hp. The all-new Black Series has a V8 engine too, but that one produces 622 hp, just in case you wanted more power. The transmission for both is a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic and the car features aluminum shift paddles on the steering wheels for easy gear changes.
2. Luxurious interior
The interior of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is as beautiful as the outside. It’s filled with soft-touch materials and premium gadgets to please even the fussiest shopper. Then there are the ultra-cool gullwing-style doors, which will not only turn heads but also allow for easy entry and exit.
3. User-friendly controls
Inside the 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG you’ll find a user-friendly system, which is refreshing in a car with this level of cool. The COMAND interface is very straightforward, despite how much it’s in control of. Among many other elements, it controls Bluetooth® connectivity, voice control, a six-speaker stereo system, iPod interface, and a navigation system as standard.
4. Exclusive new SLS AMG Black Series coupe
There’s something new to add to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG lineup for 2014. The exclusive new SLS AMG Black Series Coupe comes with an incredible 622 hp V8 engine. There are a few aesthetic changes like the adjustable rear spoiler and pumped-up fenders, but it gets some performance upgrades too. The stiffer suspension improves handling, while the carbon fiber additions cut down the car’s weight.
5. Lots of standard features
Of course, a luxury sports car like this comes with plenty of standard features. The 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG has adaptive suspension dampers and bi-xenon headlights, as well as keyless ignition, auto-dimming mirrors, and more. There are also plenty of driver aids, including blind spot monitoring, front and rear parking sensors, and a rearview camera for added peace of mind.
