2011 The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG coupe

It is always a welcome addition when a great supercar paves the way to a "convertible" or often named "roadster" version of itself. The market for exotic convertibles and exotic rental convertibles will certainly have room for one more!

The gearbox is a double clutched affair which works really well. There is a slight delay when you flick the paddles but overall it feels very sharp and responsive. The car is very obviously rear wheel drive. The seating position is very back and harks back to honest, old school GT's and combined with the sharp steering you have total faith in where the front of the car is going to go.
