Mercedes-Benz has announced the 2014 SLS AMG Black Series will have a starting price of $275,000, excluding an $1,800 for destination charge, when it goes on sale in the U.S. next month.
The street-legal version of the SLS AMG GT3 has an aerodynamic body kit with new bumpers, modified side skirts and flared wheel arches. There's also a carbon fiber rear diffuser, a titanium exhaust system, carbon ceramic brakes and 19- / 20-inch lightweight forged alloy wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
Motivaton is provided by a 6.2-liter V8 engine that produces 622 hp at 7,400 rpm and 634 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. It enables the supercar to accelerate from 0-96 km/h in 3.5 seconds and hit a top speed of 315 km/h. In terms of efficiency, it returns 13.7-liter per 100 km (20.6 mpg UK or 17 mpg US) and CO2 emissions of 321 g/km.
The German carmaker also announced the C63 AMG Edition 507 sedan will begin at $70,000, while the C63 Edition 507 coupe will cost $72,500 (both excluding a $925 destination charge). The models are powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine which develops 507 hp and 609 Nm of torque. This allows the cars to sprint from 0-96 km/h in 4.1 seconds and hit a top speed of 280 km/h.
