Mercedes-Benz's highly anticipated SLS AMG supercar has once again been spotted by our spy photographers.
While we've already seen this particular mule before, our spies have managed to take additional pictures which show a better view of the grille, headlights, and rear end. Although they were unable to get a glimpse of the interior, Mercedes already released official press photos of the SLS cockpit last month.
As previously reported, the new supercar features a naturally aspirated front mid-mounted 6.2-liter V8 engine which produces 571 hp (420 kW) and 650 Nm (479 lb-ft) of torque. Thanks to the combination of a powerful engine and an advanced seven-speed double clutch transmission, the SLS AMG Gullwing rockets from 0-100 km/h in 3.8 seconds before hitting a top speed of 315 km/h (196 mph).
Expected to be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, the SLS AMG Gullwing will go on sale next year with a base price somewhere in the neighborhood of €150,000.

BMW is no near building it! either with whatever exotic...simply BMW cannot put a 150k € sticker on a car with BMW badge....like VW couldn`t do it with 100k!! BMW learned from the past that they are one of the best in a range from 20-80K € bu over or belove it they don`t dare! When they tried they burned themselves...Z8, 8-series,...etc so that is also the reason to not built M7 or very potent SLR opponent or oponnent to SL65 AMG, also they won`t do the R8 rival etc.
BMW is good when you`re bored in your VW and after that you don`t have enough money for Mercedes-AMG :)
Period.
