Please don't drool on your monitor. Consider if you will, some of the sexiest word combinations in the English language and that they apply to the car pictured at right:
Dry Sump Lubrication (keeps the engine from starving for oil during high g-force cornering)
AMG Speedshift Transmission (matches revs on downshifts to help maintain speed and keep the car balanced, putting more power to the road)
Ceramic Composite Brakes (race cars have these, and they dissipate heat better so you can brake harder and deeper into a corner)
Redline of 7050 RPM (higher revs mean using more of the engine's power at top speed, which brings us to...
Top Speed Limited to 196 (wow. means you could remove the limiters and go way over 200, which is almost fast enough, thank you)
11.3:1 Compression (more dense air gets into the engine, helps make more power, which leads to...
563 bhp (five-hundred and sixty-three brake horsepower)
479 lb.ft. of torque (anyone need a house moved down the street?)
Word combinations like these usually only apply to race cars. With the SLS, Mercedes has peppered our dictionary and phrasebook with these ever-so-slightly obscene descriptions that make (gear) heads swoon and hearts palpitate.
And the gorgeousness! Let's not forget that this car is so ridiculously beautiful from every angle that it just hurts.
I can't decide between Imola Grey with the Red interior, or White with the Red interior.
