I, like many of you perhaps, thought that tweaking the SLS’ already superlative looks was an action best left to the deep, dark recesses of one’s own imagination. The Merc has is very understated with its sleek and graceful bodylines, and yet is still capable of folding the tarmac in two with 468lb-ft of torque and a flex of the right ankle. The perfect ‘Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde’ type of car, which is what I love it.
Now this model is all Mr. Hyde: pure insanity, and boy is that point hammered home by the looks alone. Hand me the keys, NOW!
