The evil-twin of the recently facelifted Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG has a name: Black Series. The most menacing SL to exit AMG’s factory comes with a breathtaking $320,000 price tag and a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 engine pumping out 670HP at 5,400 rpm and 738 lb.-ft of torque (SL65 AMG: 612Hp).
But that’s not all as the SL65 AMG Black Series features carbon fiber hood, fenders and trunk, along with a fixed carbon fiber roof with an integrated roll cage that replaces the retractable hard top. As a result, the Black Series weighs in at 4,122 pounds (1,869 kg) or 550 pounds (250kg) less than the stock SL65.
AMG also souped up the appearance of the Black Series with an aerodynamic wide bodykit that features seven air ducts - three in the bumper, two on the hood and two in the fenders- to cool off the massive twin-turbocharged V12 engine. According to preliminary figures, the Black Series can go from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.9 sec while top speed is limited to 199 mph or 320 km/h. -45 High Res Images after the jump

WOW! this is the first Merc I drooled over in a long time! It's like racing sex on wheels. Its about time Merc!
Truly a stunning automobile!
Shoot me, but while this car looks cool, it also lacks finesse and will soon look dated as a result.
Don't believe me, then take a look at an Audi R8? Half the price for a piece of class that will still look cool in 10 years time.
RUDE car.... shame about the wheels, what happened to the split rim racing wheels that were on the mule?
