I own a 2011 SL63 AMG. This is probably the best SL63 that MB has ever made. Terrific handling and performance. Lots of power for a thrilling driving experience. I strongly recommend the car. This car is a beast for the right driver but can also become a cruiser if you switch it to the settings for that. It has been very reliable for the most part. If you're looking for a luxury muscle car that can do it all, it would be hard to match this car. Definitely a nice machine..

I have owned this SL-63 from day one! Fantastic car. except: a) buy extra spoiler plates for that front "black bar". Everyone scrapes it. b) every 3-yrs seems it needs engine mounts too. c) vacuum hoses go often once you hit that 6 th year of owning. It is truly expensive. Like $1,500.00-$3,000.00. be ready. But if you compare it to a new pmt of avg of $1,200.00 per mo. well you see; it is not too bad. don't like new sl's. I have pearl & diamond white. Those were the bomb in 2011/2012! Good luck!

Folks, this is a fine car. Period. Mine is now 10-yrs old with low mileage per se. Power-Excellent. Comfort-Phenomenal. Ride-Spectacular. I have owned three (3) during the generations of SL63. It beats the SL65 in speed test too. Yes, repairs can be a bit pricey. But it averages out reasonably. They are few & far between. If you can find one, Buy it ASAP. You will be very happy. Remember I have had 4-500's & 550's and 3-SL63's. SL-63 FAR BETTER OVERALL.

The sl63 is simply exhilarating in performance, anesthetics, and curb appeal. I sold my 1988 sl 560 and had sellers remorse. I found a 2011 with 12K miles. It has headers which is another story, but this car is magical. I agree with other comments regarding controls and their ergonomics or lack there of, but who cares. You can take the radio and GPS out of the car and just drive. WOW!!!!
