Mercedes AMG unveiled their latest commercial for the SL65 AMG 45th Anniversary special edition. The commercial lets us know the only place men can cry, and many of us will cry as only 45 units will be produced. The SL65 AMG 45th Anniversary edition celebrates the 45 years that passed since Mercedes started working with AMG. The Anniversary Edition is powered by a standard 6.0 liter V12 Engine with 463 kW (630 hp) at 4800 – 5400 rpm and 1000 Nm at 2300 – 4300 rpm*

The designers have created a new paint finish exclusively for the SL 65 AMG “45th ANNIVERSARY”: designo magno graphite. This grey color with its satin look helps to highlights the V12 roadster’s supremely powerful character. The matte finish brings out the contours of the aluminium body while high-gloss chrome applications add an interesting contrast.

Since its foundation in 1967, Mercedes-AMG GmbH, based in Affalterbach near Stuttgart, has been concerned with the development of motor racing and engine technologies. Numerous successes in the field of motorsport and an excellent reputation among customers around the globe attest to the outstanding expertise offered by the AMG brand. As a one hundred percent subsidiary of Daimler AG, Mercedes-AMG GmbH has enjoyed a rapid rise to its present status. Today, the company is firmly integrated into Mercedes-Benz’s development processes. This close involvement right from the concept development stage for new models spawns high-performance automobiles which embody a perfect blend
of hallmark Mercedes-Benz genes and AMG features.
