Less than a month after we brought you the first spy photos showcasing the rebirth of the legendary Mercedes-Benz Gullwing, spy photographer extraordinaire Rich Truesdell has captured yet another impeccable look at the future supercar – one that this time offers a high resolution view of the model testing in the California desert.   As you'll see, the next Gullwing still boasts an exceptional amount of camouflage, but the aura of the former 300 SL is still present, providing you use a bit of imagination.

In addition to the various photos they captured of the Gullwing, Automotive Traveler also published a number of details specifying what they believe we can expect from the forthcoming model.  As we mentioned in the past, power is likely to come from AMG's 6.2-Liter V8 outputting around 600 horsepower, mated to a 8-speed transaxle.  Curb weight is expected to come in under 1,700 kilograms with the help of an ultra-stiff aluminum and carbon fiber space frame, the result of which will be a 0-62 mph time of about 3.7 seconds. And in terms of size, the next Gullwing is expected to be slightly larger than the outgoing SLR McLaren, with early estimates giving the Merc a length of roughly 4,650mm, a width of 1,950mm and a height of 1,250mm.

As for its name, rumors now indicate the model will be known as the SLS, departing from the former SLC moniker.  However, a quick search of the USPTO database doesn't show either currently being registered to Daimler (at least from my brief round of research), so I'm going to say the final Gullwing won't be known as either the SLS or SLC.

We will of course keep you posted as new details of the future Mercedes-Benz Gullwing emerge; in the meantime, you can check out another spy photo of the model below, then head over to Automotive Traveler where you can find the complete high resolution Mercedes Gullwing spy photo gallery in its entirety.

Enjoy ladies and gentlemen.
