In similar fashion to the SL 65 AMG Black Series teaser photos, famous Mercedes-Benz tuner, Lorinser, has issued a teaser announcement for its tuning program for the new face-lifted SL-Class. Based on the SL 500, the new look SL will receive Lorinser's L 55 RS powerplant recently seen in the Lorinser CLS-Class with 460 hp (338 kW) and 585 Nm of torque compared to the standard 388 hp (285 kW) and 530 Nm. Lorinser will debut the 300 km/h (186 mph) SL-Class at the auto industry trade fair, Automechanika, in Frankfurt from September 16 – 21. Stay tuned.
