Here's a review of the top-of-the-range 2013 Mercedes SL - the SL500. Powered by a 429 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque V8 engine, the new Mercedes SL500 (2013) can get from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds. Let's not forget that it can also do some amazing drifts, with the right driver at the wheel of course. In comparison to the previous version, the new SL500 comes with a new design, a lot more equipment and more efficient engines.
