| Team-BHP Support  | SL 55 - sounds wicked, SL65 -might consider but too nose heavy, so the pundits say |

| Senior - BHPian  | SL55 AMG for me. Looks better, has similar power, will be lighter and more fun to drive. Regards... Shan2nu |

| V12, Those are US specs, For us indians the EU specs which make both cars @ 500 Bhp While the Sl600 has a torque of 590 lb-ft @ 1800 - 3500Rpm, and the SL55 is 516 lb-ft @ 2,750 - 4,000 rpm SL600 |
