2010 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

2010 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG design review

​            Coming to us in just the nick of time the 2010 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG just might be what this company needs right now.  With an awful looking E-Class, and the dying SLR, it just seemed that Mercedes was losing its luster.  Then with the help of a Dodge Viper they started working on a new supercar.  Although the SLS is completely separate from the Dodge, it still used it on its concept.  

       With retro still going it was just a matter of time before the Germans started to see the potential in reliving their past.  When you first see the SLS you almost think that it is a 300SL, just with new rims and headlights.  Of course, when you take something old and make it new you are always going to come into some sort of problem.  The main problem with the SLS, is the fact that it is following the craze of nose styled front ends.  The grille does fit the design, but it sticks out too much from the front.  The rear is a bit round but that is ok, the only part which is not ok, is the lip spoiler which does not fit the design of the car.
