It is a patrol car for the neighborhood security. It is a very expensive neighborhood.

Have loved the SLS since I first saw it but damn those gauges look cheap and tacky. Sounds great though. Do want.

Not to bash the car, but really... the car sounds like those crappy go-karts at some fun park. I nearly fell asleep.

Sounds like a muscle car (Camaro, Mustang, etc.). Nothing sounds better than a high-revving V10 (LFA, Carrera GT, etc.) or high-revving V8 of some Ferraris.

i think that the video does not translate the sound well, and i think that some people are realizing that, and figuring out what it would really sound like. those are the people who think it sounds bad ass. others are asuming that this is what it sounds like in person, and those are the ones who think it sounds bad.

am i making any sence or just going on about something that no one cares about again...

[QUOTE=qwkdtsn,Dec 31 2009, 10:53 AM] I also don't like the way it sounds, too raspy.

I guess you can say thats what seperates MB from the rest of the european automakers. High revving sports cars? Naaaaaa!!!! I guess thats what makes an AMG an AMG, muscle car like sound with the exterior and interior design of a european car....besides I think the the srt crossfire def. would just sound sooo wrong if it had the high pitched exhaust note

I guess it gives people a 2nd opinion on MB, in my case when I first heard an AMG I was "it looks european...but sounds american....nice"

aston martin sounds like muscle too
