Why are cars like the legendary Mercedes Benz SL 55 AMG so expensive? Let's leave aside talk about brands and innovations. Firstly, those who painstakingly and for a long time make quality things need to be well paid. Secondly, such a car is based on the ingenious design solutions of people who have changed the automotive world. And it's worth it. Thirdly, the technological solutions used in such vehicles are on the verge of the possible. In order to "feel" this line, it is necessary to test it experimentally, spending time and money: practically breaking something and stepping back a little to be sure that this will not happen again. And it costs just as much.
For more than 40 years, AMG has been pushing Mercedes Benz cars to the brink of the possible, and doing so on behalf of customers. Usually they “finish” two or even three identical cars on order, one of which is assembled for the client, and on the other they test the performance and reliability of the solutions used. Therefore, the figures for the technical characteristics of the order are sometimes corrected during assembly, coordinating with the client. The reliability of AMG solutions is not built on the assumption that it will definitely work, but on the confidence from practically confirmed results.tests.
The technological features and characteristics of the Mercedes Benz SL 55 AMG have three levels. The first one is the basic one, which is provided by Daimler AG's car manufacturing technology. The second - additional - provides AMG with bringing to the basic technical characteristics of this model according to AMG. And the third - individual - is ordered by the client and agreed upon by AMG.
The prefix SL (Sport Leicht) in the name of the Mercedes Benz SL 55 AMG means "light sportiness", rather even the sporting ability of a car that is easy to manage. Anyone who has been behind the wheel of such a car, first of all, highlights the comfort of driving a “tamed beast”. Despite almost half a thousand horsepower and acceleration to 100 km / h in 4.7 seconds, driving this car does not pull "reckless". The nobility of the car, the magnificence of external forms and interior decoration set up respectability and slowness of the driver, who knows his own worth and knows how to behave with restraint under any circumstances.
The first thing that fascinates inside the Mercedes Benz SL 55 AMG is the comfort of the seats and controls. You will not find such lateral support and general enveloping of the body anywhere else, and all other cars will then be evaluated as a percentage of this impression. The second strong point of the SL from AMG is the noise isolation and vibration resistance of the car. It allows you to talk in a whisper and listen to uncompressed classical music during any driving conditions. And the thirda feature that distinguishes Mercedes in general, and the SL 55 AMG has been brought to the limits of perfection, is road holding or, as drivers say: “goes like a cruiser”. First of all, this leads to the fact that there is no sense of speed even on poor-quality roads. Allocate such a thing as "comfortable speed of the car", which does not feel like a dangerous driving. The AMG 55 has a speed of 210-220 km/h on a medium quality track.
In general, such a car has only two drawbacks: first you need a lot of money to buy it, then a lot of money for gasoline. And the rest - just pleasure.
