2013 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Test Drive & Luxury Convertible Car Video Review
http://www.autobytel.com/mercedes-benz/sl-class/2013/ The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL550 has been completely redesigned and marks the 6th generation of the SL-Class. The SL550 is a roadster which is in essence a two seat convertible. The roof is 13 lbs. lighter than the previous model thanks to the use of lightweight magnesium materials. The 2013 Mercedes SL550 has an MSRP price of $103,650.
The SL550 is powered by a twin turbo 4.6 liter V-8 engine that produces 429 horsepower and 516 lb-ft. of torque. The 7-speed automatic transmission features wheel mounted paddle shifters as well as 3 distinct driving modes: ECO, Sport, and Manual. Combined with the start-stop system the 2013 Mercedes SL550 has a fuel economy rating of 16 MPG in the city and 24 MPG on the highway which is better than the previous model.
The new 2013 Mercedes SL-Class features an all aluminum body that reduces the weight by over 300 lbs. compared to the outbound model. This weight reduction alone provides a huge Boost in performance. In fact with the twin-turbo V-8 engine the SL550 can rocket from 0-60 MPH in 4.5 seconds. That figure is pure super car territory. The exterior still holds the shape that made the SL-Class famous over 60 years ago but with modern lines. The Xenon headlights feature LED running lights which are a must for any self-respecting luxury car. The 19-inch alloy AMG wheels give the 2013 Mercedes SL550 a very aggressive look.
The suspension features a ton of great technology that offers the most luxurious yet sporty ride. The active dampening shocks at each wheel adjust the dampening rate every 10 milliseconds. The result is a smooth ride with razor sharp handling. The Active Body Control System is tasked with providing a balanced ride. The body roll is limited when cornering and the SL550's ride height is reduced as speeds increase.
The 2013 Mercedes SL-Class is a convertible first and foremost. The SL550 features a retractable hardtop that can open or close in less than 15 seconds. MAGIC SKY CONTROL is a trick feature that with the press of a button turns the roof from clear to opaque or vice versa. Integrated into the headrests are vents that can provide a cool blast of air on a hot sunny day. The AIRSCARF system does the opposite. Beneath each head rest vents deliver a blast of warm air so you can keep the top down even in the fall and winter.
The 2013 Mercedes SL550 is one of the best convertible roadsters on the market today. With a powerful yet efficient 400+ horsepower engine and a wonderfully automatic retractable hardtop; the Mercedes has tons of wonderful attributes.

The Panamera is one part sports car, one part luxury car, one part hatchback, and one part sedan. Over the past decade, Porsche has created a few unique vehicles to target a broad range of car buyers. The Boxster is aimed at the entry level sports car enthusiast while the Cayenne is aimed at those looking for a quick SUV. But the Panamera offers 911 performance with a usable back seat.

The transmission is the famous PDK twin-cutch 7-speed unit that shifts lighting quick. Fuel economy on the 2012 Porsche Panamera is 18 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway thanks in part to an auto start/stop system which shuts down the engine while the car is sitting idle. Sixty MPH flies by in 5.8 seconds and the Panamera 4 has a top speed of 159 MPH. The Panamera handles incredibly well thanks to the Porsche Traction Management system. The AWD monitors driving situations and can adjust power as need. The Panamera is equipped with Anti-Slip Regulation and Automatic Brake Differential.
Porsche Active Suspension Management is optional on the Panamera 4. This system provides electronic dampening at all 4 corners of the car thus reducing body roll and increasing handling. The system will also tighten up the setting based on the selection of modes: Comfort, Sport, and Sport Plus. The rims are 18-inch alloys wrapped in sticky rubber. The 2012 Porsche Panamera comes with huge 360 mm brakes up front and 330 mm brakes out back. The calipers are six-piston units. Safety wise besides all the electronic computer controlled systems, the Panamera 4 features a full compliment of 2-stage airbags for both the front and rear passengers.
With the rear seats up the Panamera has a luggage compartment with over 15 cubic feet of storage space. But with he seats down the hatchback design allows for over 44 cubic feet of cargo room which is a large amount for this segment. And believe it or not the 2012 Porsche Panamera can tow up to 4850 lbs. The Panamera is a very efficient and powerful sports car that offers a high level of luxury and sophistication while being able to transport 4 passengers in style.
