The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe Black Series, is the fifth Black Series-version from Mercedes. The 2013 Series boasts great driving dynamics, uncompromising light weight construction and elegant design.
The company has made the effort to reduce the overall body weight of the car by using carbon fiber, replacing original parts such as underbody braces, torque tube and hood.
