Drive Takes the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a Spin

It’s rare enough to see one in life, yet Drive Channel got behind the wheel of a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series, taking the 631 horsepower beast for a test drive at Paul Ricard Circuit in France. The 7-speed jet-on-wheels weighs about 3,415 lbs and can zip from stationary to 60 mph in approximately 3.5 seconds. Featuring a more streamlined, wider body on the outside, with racing seats and carbon fiber detailing on the interior, the SLS AMG Black Series performs like no AMG before it. After a brief period examining the individual improvements to the car, Drive’s Chris Harris takes the car on (an animated) run on the track. Enjoy the clip above.
