Vehicle Overview
After 12 years in its previous form, a wholly restyled Mercedes-Benz SL500 two-seat convertible came out. At the push of a button, the car can transform from a roadster to a watertight coupe in 16 seconds.
New electronic brake control is standard. Variable brake proportioning could apply added pressure to the outside wheels to enhance control when braking in turns.
Soon after the emergence of the SL500, the high performance SL600 came out with a bi-turbo V-12. The V-12 capable of reaching 60 mph in 4.2 seconds.
Exterior
Introduced for 2003, the SL was an evolution of the previous-generation SL-Class roadster, and it changed substantially in appearance. Styling touches were reminiscent of SLs of the past. The automaker said clear-glass xenon high-intensity-discharge headlights were considered a "more dynamic variation on the familiar 'twin-headlamp' theme." An "intelligent" tilting mechanism ensures that the roof retracts into the upper section of the trunk.
Aluminum is used to keep body weight down. The slippery-shaped SL has a 0.29 coefficient of drag.
Interior
Leather, fine wood and aluminum are used in the interior. Matte chrome surrounds the four separate chronometer-styled instruments on the dashboard. Cargo capacity is 7.2 cubic feet with the top down and 10.2 cubic feet when the roof is up. The car has a distronic adaptive cruise control.
Safety
Standard side-impact airbags are designed to protect an occupant's head and thorax. A driver's side knee airbag is installed. Automatic roll bars pop up within 0.3 seconds when the system senses an impending rollover.
SL600
Introduced as a 2004 model, the SL600 holds a twin-turbo 5.5-liter V-12 that produces 493 hp at 5,000 rpm and 590 pounds-feet of torque as early as 1,800 rpm. Its five-speed-automatic transmission incorporates Touch Shift operation for manually selected gear changes. Though engine horsepower is identical in both the SL600 and SL55 AMG, the automaker says the SL600 differs in character; its power delivery is more refined and exhibits greater torque output.
The same brakes are used in the SL600 and SL55 AMG. Five-spoke 18-inch alloy wheels are installed. A chrome grille and subtle "V12" badges identify the SL600. Nappa leather on the active ventilated seats comes in a choice of colors. An integrated digital phone is standard. Keyless Go, a heated steering wheel and corner-illuminating fog lamps are standard on the 2006 SL600.
Mercedes-Benz managed to combine ferocity and luxury in the SL600, which flaunts a noticeable exhaust note and posh occupant fittings. Tromp the gas pedal while standing still and the SL600 lunges forward with a triumphant burst of power. Response is no less dramatic when pushing the throttle at higher speeds. SL600 drivers will likely feel supremely confident when passing and merging.
Few cars are more lavishly upholstered than the SL600, which features masterfully stitched leather that cradles its occupants. The seats are snugly bolstered. Rich-looking wood on the console and doors rounds out the interior.
Serious luxury also shows through in this SL's compliant suspension. The ride is far smoother than in a typical sports car. A wind blocker helps when the top is down, but some buffeting may occur regardless.
Is it excessive? Of course it is, but at least the SL600 delivers an enjoyable form of automotive excess.
