Mercedes Boston customers will find new SLS AMG among Hot Sports Cars for 2011
Boston Mercedes GLK dealers are looking forward to the new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG model, which made the list of Hot Sports cars for 2011. It will be a bit more affordable than its predecessor, the SLR McLaren, which went for $495,000.
The SLS AMG will still be exclusive, with a starting price of $183,000 and the quality will be everything you expect from Mercedes-Benz and then some. This new star in the Mercedes fleet is bursting with style and stamina.
With a V-8 and 563-horsepower, it's all about performance. Add in the gull-wing doors and beautiful contours and you have a piece of art that provides a comfortable, fast ride. This future classic SLS AMG is defined by its aluminum construction, long hood and movable rear wing. (Did I mention the gull-wing doors?) Mercedes Boston customers will be sold on them!
When it comes to purchasing a high-end Mercedes-Benz like the SLS AMG, most buyers are after speed and power and the design is secondary. That's why Mercedes-Benz has made sure to deliver plenty of both with the new SLS AMG – it does zero to 60 in 3.7 seconds, just in case you need to make a fast getaway from a lame party or family gathering.
Featuring a seven-speed, dual-clutch transmission, the SLS AMG will be a blast to drive and Boston Mercedes GLK owners will want to check it out. Even though it's not in everyone's price range, for those who can afford it, this is the car to have.
There's little that can compare with a fast Mercedes-Benz, but the Hot Sports Cars list included models in every price range, so even if the SLS AMG is not in your budget, you can find something that is. For true car enthusiasts, though, there's nothing like the high-powered, high-end ride.
Some of the other contenders that made the list include: the Audi R8 Spyder, Cadillac CTS Coupe/CTS-V Coupe, Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster Spyder, Honda CR-Z, and the Subaru WRX STI. Mercedes Boston buyers will want to check out the SLS AMG first. Sadly, that will spoil them for anything else, although there may be a Mercedes-Benz model closer to their price point that will make their hearts pound.
These sporty rides can be had in everything from six-speed to seven speed transmissions to turbocharged. Some come with front-wheel drive and some with rear-wheel drive – there are lots of differentials here. Their prices range from 19,000 – 183,000.
Mercedes-Benz also has a wide range of style choices in every price range and your dealer can put you in a model that will suit your budget and lifestyle – anything from a sporty coupe to an SUV. Mercedes-Benz has what you want.
