Throughout its long history, Mercedes-Benz has built cars with a unique formula that blends sports, luxury, touring and performance.
When its new SL-Class was announced in January 2012—including the new SL63 AMG—the tradition continued in the competitive upscale segment that includes stalwarts like the Audi R8 Spyder, BMW 6 Series Convertible and Porsche 911 Cabriolet.
For 2013, the new and lighter (it's 90 percent aluminum) Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG is one of three SL-Class convertibles with a retractable hardtop. It slots between the SL550 and the SL65 in the big roadster's lineup, and features a 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8; upgraded 19-inch wheels; AMG tuning of the suspension, brakes and exhaust; and additional performance and styling touches.
