Mercedes SLS AMG

Gullwing doors! This is a beautiful car. I wouldn't buy it, but it's gorgeous. Why not? A better driving experience can be had for less in the R8, and if you are looking for pure sexiness, you have to pick Aston Martin. We shot this up in the hills above Santa Barbara, we just happened on this perfect newly paved road, although it was a bit narrow, it still provided a proper back drop for the SLS. We had two gopro's fall off the car, we thought for sure that one had tumbled off of the edge but eventually found it wedged in some underbrush. Lessons learned: 1) The slightly concave surface of the SLS wing is not a great spot for a gopro camera. 2) The rear quarter panel gets hotter than hell from the exhaust, also not a good place for a suction mounted camera.
