For those who find the SL 63 AMG a little slow and mundane Mercedes tuner Carlsson {link} have the answer, their SL CK63 RS.
Minor yet effective tuning results in a 600PS cabriolet that sprint from 0-62mph in an impressive 4.1 seconds and reaches a top speed of a remarkable 200mph! To cope with the extra 75PS the brakes and suspension receive upgrades with carbon pads and huge discs (398mm front & 330mm rear) providing the stopping power whilst the electronically controlled 30mm lowering of the suspension keeps traction at the highest level. 20 inch wheels (9½” wide at the front and a staggering 11” wide at the rear) are clothed in ultra low profile tyres and have the task of finally transmitting the 705Nm of torque produced by the engines onto the road.
There are not many 600PS cabriolets in the world and the Carlsson SL CK63 RS is a fine example of the art of tuning. Subtle body alterations (front bumper, side skirts and rear diffuser) provide aerodynamic aide as well as nice styling and as with everything on the car form and function are in harmony.
A Carlsson SL CK63 RS in Carlsson’s owm Stealth titanium graphite paint (virtually matt black) costs £270,000 including full interior details such as alcantara, velour mats and sports pedals. Carlsson will happily convert customer’s SL 63 AMGs to any desired spec.
