Default Seen an AMG SL65 Merc in the toon, so much torque!!!

seen a Mercede's SL65 tuned by AMG, was gorgeous to look at, then as it passed i noticed it was also a Bi-Turbo V12






Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG: the most powerful roadster in the world

12-cylinder AMG biturbo engine, an output of 450 kW/612 hp and a maximum torque of 1000 Nm – the new SL 65 AMG is the world's most powerful and highest-torque series-produced roadster.

The open-top two-seater not only maintains Mercedes-AMG’s impressive V12 tradition; it also offers a level of per-formance previously unheard of in this engine size class: the SL 65 AMG acceler-ates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds and passes the 200 km/h mark after just 12.9 seconds; its top speed is 250 km/h (electronically governed).

Much of the credit for the AMG 6.0-litre V12 engine's extraordinary performance must go to the biturbo system, which features larger turbochargers and powerful water-type charge-air cooling. The remarkable maximum torque of 1000 Nm remains constantly on tap between 2000 and 4000 rpm. The 570-Nm torque which the AMG V12 biturbo engine delivers to the crankshaft at just 1000 rpm rises to 830 Nm 500 rpm later.

In order to cope with the high power output, there is a newly developed, high-performance, composite brake system with 390 x 36 mm brake discs at the front and 360 x 26 mm brake discs at the rear. Internally ventilated cast-iron discs all round, with aluminium (front) and stainless steel (rear) brake disc bowls ensure optimum deceleration and fade-resistance.

What a fookin car it was daddy cool while passing the Bigg Market

It's still heavy. Very heavy. Very nice when you want to drive from one city to the other or go to a club but I tthink you can get A LOT faster cars for the money in terms of heving fun while driving.

Although I may be wrong
