The 2023 Mercedes-AMG SL is the ultimate study in automotive contrasts, gorgeous and brilliant yet aggravating and frustrating.
When you consider the kind of money it takes to buy a new 2023 SL, maybe it doesn’t matter that regular irritations are a part of the driving experience. After all, this is a car designed to convey a message to society, but this year, it costs tens of thousands less to send that message, thanks to the new SL 43 model. It has a four-cylinder engine with an electric turbocharger and makes 375 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. However, we reviewed a more powerful version of the SL.

Across all model years, the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class impresses drivers with its exceptional performance, luxurious comfort, and stylish design. Owners rave about the powerful engines and smooth handling, making each drive feel exhilarating. Many appreciate the retractable hardtop, which adds versatility to the driving experience. However, some common drawbacks include concerns over high maintenance costs, limited cargo space, and occasional reliability issues. While the SL-Class stands as a testament to luxury and performance, potential buyers should consider the cost of ownership and practicality for everyday use.

What people say
The car I bought is a 2022 SL 55 and it is really an exciting car to drive and own. It feels great and the power is nothing short of amazing. I drove a SL 450 2020 before and the changes to this car are exhilarating.
This car is such a bold new version of the SL models. It looks great and feels terrific. It is amazing fast. There is plenty of room and it gets the looks!
Upon further examination, I found that the rear seating area was too small and cramping for any passengers except maybe small children and shopping bags, which seems to negate the purpose for rear seating.
I am older and miss the CD player. I also like a clear roof. Other than that the sl63 mercedes us an awesome car.
The future is now, class, comfort and power, what more could you want?
