Overview
The Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series (R230) is a limited-production performance version of the 2008-2011 Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG.
Description
The Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series utilizes a 6.0L (5,980 cc) twin-turbo V12, named the M275 AMG. The turbochargers are 12% larger over the regular SL 65 AMG, and the optimized wastegate ducts allow more air to be let in. The intake air ducts and exhaust system have been altered to improve response and reduce the exhaust gas backpressure. The Black Series is 550 lb (249 kg) lighter than regular SL 65 AMG by the use of light carbon fiber composites (CFRP) parts and the omission of the SL's normal foldable hardtop roof, replacing it with a fixed roof, which thus allowed for a retractable rear wing.
A revised version of the SL 65 AMG Black Series's M275 AMG V12 engine, renamed the M158, was later used in the Pagani Huayra and Pagani Huayra BC.
