sl55 topgear

[junk4dimeji]

there is an identical video where he track 5 is not coldplays tune, but some classical piece. thats weird.

[mechodetroit2007]

I own this car, 2006 and every time I drive it is have the great feelings and joy it brings, I prefer it for a Ferrari. I am thinking to exchange it for sl63 but I am hesitating because of a slight pause in the first second the 63 has. For a supercar, you can never go wrong with the sl amg cars. And I am not I Benz fan for other models, but this car and the sls are different story and I owned many super cars. If this was by another maker, it would cost double at least

[kv12354]

this car is just a big mighty mecerdes and i have touched 300 kmh in one

[SweetPlanetEarth]

Wonderful! No further comments

[Dutchpwr99]

That lovely supercharged V8 noise gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to it.

[iCheckVtec]

give me this man's job, God above I beg of You...

[AznS0ulja]

yeah baby ! coldplay !

[red33m23]

Song at the beginning is:

Everyone one in the world is doing something without me by the future sound of London

It is written like that.

[kinseythetiger]

@gingaballa It looks a TON better in black... he got an ugly color here haha

[Soetman]

WHO SELLS A F355 FOR THIS CAR ???? !!!!!

[kozoderac]

hm... i don't know... i'm REEEEEEALLY strugling between SL55 AMG and SLK55 AMG... SLK does look stunning, but SL has far more feel to it...

[Xevisberi]

Shitty taste of color mr.Clarkson!

[Jefsky85]

2:00 ...that Ferrari could never doe ... California!!! :))

SL is a GORGEOUS car!!!

[chrinny123]

F**kin great car my dad has 1 like clackson's bloody great

[099psp]

@chrinny123 yeah ive got 1 in black too!

[FuckFeminists]

the photography was amazing, I dont know quite how they captured those angles at that speed...

[phantomloita]

they use a range rover with split tail gate for rear shot frontal of the car and they use a Audi for side shot

[EdAk333]

But look at his face when they told him that they lend his car to the stig!!!

[Krycek2008]

7mpg? hahahah try 4 or 3...

[kreoz007]

What is the song in the beginning? kinda orchestral

[lefthandedarsecheek]

[mrLECHOO]

he has got clk63 black & I'm sure that he will have coming soon SLS AMG ;D

[ham803]

Does anybody know how many cars Jeremy has. All I know that he has a ford gt, Aston Martin v8 vantage, mb sl55 amg, slk55 amg, lambo gallardo spyder and a Volvo xc90.

[tubebellator]

he sold his gt cause it always broke, he replaced it with a lambo gallardo, then sold it to buy this sl 55. not sure about other cars. well he is an old bloke and probably done with crazy supercars.

[ham803]

doesnt make sense to me why he sold the gallardo spyder to get a sl55. is it because it is more practical?

[tubebellator]

i think he just wants a more practical everyday car. gallardo is a car for special occasions. he said people spit in his car if he drives anything flashy

[mattthew1957]

He didn't this is an old episode of top gear, he got his Gallardo a long time after.

[fmsdaman1]

This is season 1. now its season 14, and i'm not sure what he has now.

[Hardstyle1OOpercent]

Im pretty sure he has a zr1 corvette too

[ham803]

he mentioned that he was getting it when they went to america for the challenger, cts v and the zr1 but i dont know if he really bought it.

[WonkyDoodle]

I doubt he has them all at any one time. He's probably sold most of them i would have thought. Pretty sure the gallardo replaced the ford GT

[TheProjektcc]

wow i didn't think he'd ever get rid of the 355

[JoshsGTO]

The Ferrari was as relaxing as being tickled lol. I love the way they talk!!!

[PorscheLieber]

Even though I'm a Coldplay addict I shivered when I heard their song Clocks for the millionth time.....

[cynizmsarkazmorgazm]

Dj Shadow - Mongrel from The Private Press

[red33m23]

2:47 which song?

[maserati199]

I'm sorry but I do not like the colour

[lankas13]

what is the music at the begining?

[red33m23]

@lankas13 Everyone one in the world is doing something without me by the future sound of London

[JAYJAY1000000]

Love that car, tomorrow's classic, for sure!

[xXSilentXKillaXx]

You can already see that.

The new SL's have remained with the previous generation SL's back-end; including tail lights etc.

Definately going to be a collectors car, no doubt.

[rynkeby23]

@JAYJAY1000000 my dad got one!

[jakartans]

@JAYJAY1000000

heyyaa...finally someone said it! i got one back at home.

The only SL350 in my country

[JAYJAY1000000]

@jakartans Congratulations are in order then; enjoy!

[entybenty]

@JAYJAY1000000 already a classic in my opinion . Epic v8 . I only wished it had a manual gearbox...at least as an option..

[bonskiiTV]

@entybenty A manual transmission is an archaism today. Have you ever tried that modern automatic gearboxes that used in AMG? You just can't do shiftings better with a manual gearbox. I know what I'm talking about because a friend of mine has a C63 AMG and it's just astonishing

The same thing with a Ferrari, Lambo and other modern supercars

[entybenty]

@bonskiiTV it is faster , but the feeling of changing gears yourself . feeling part of the machine ...that cant be replaced by any automatic gearbox. At least that's my opinion , i guess it is a matter of taste .

[IndyenRtist]

wait....he sold a ferrari to buy a merc?

how much does he make?

[iainthornton]

well his renewed contract for Top Gear is worth £18 million

[LordJesseD]

We're to assume he sold the Ferrari because he didn't use it and it was extrememly impractical. So I guess it was like a trade in.

I'd take this over the 355 every time.

[Streetracingpunk72]

@IndyenRtist He probably doesn't make that much, seeing as he works for the BBC, but his parents own/owned Paddington Bears. I'd assume that's where his millions come from.

[rynkeby23]

@IndyenRtist to much

[SoreHead11]

@IndyenRtist He had an F355 and people kept spitting at it.

[falkentires55]

@IndyenRtist he sold his ford gt because it kept breaking down, bought it again, the same thing happened, so he sold it again, and bought a lamborghini gallardo spyder

[ThePKMNLucario]

@IndyenRtist He makes a lot now after Top Gear became so popular =)

A few million dollars a year

[NehpetsK57]

i luv the sl class, its like the german version of an american muscle car, even sounds like it

[mrLECHOO]

no, you are shit !

[nickestrada94]

that car is the shit!

[Virushere88]

you're the fuckn shit!

i cant sleep at night because of thinking about this car!

its my dream

[Carfreak15243]

When he says it' *the* shit, that means it's good in American-speak.

[pitabread79]

you do realize that be saying "that car is the shit," he is actually saying the equivalent of "that car is really awesome!" I know, modern vernacular English is strange, but that's how it is. He was complimenting it.

[kleiberfarias4]

lol!

[doyle0915]

OMG I want that car!

[richboy900]

Sweet car, LMAO 5:22

[titubatu]

can anyone tell me the song's title at 2:42?

thnx

[whygodrums10]

DJ shadow, "...Meets His Maker" epic song

[areva360]

Thanks a lot mate, been looking for this one

[limotations]

i just got a sl55 in blue it is fantastic fast luxury car .looks good and sounds even better

[blackbeauty3434258]

yeha the 355 may have been better but like he said he wanted a more relaxed car and he couldnt get that in a ferarri 355 so he went 4 the sl which is a good choice.

my dad has one and i love it ;)

[malalwaaa]

what is the name of this track when he go cd 3 track 5

[bmw630d]

coldplay- speed of sound

[Gandalfzm]

NO. The really name of the song is Coldplay - Clocks.

[dennieb1]

I love the noise that this car makes.

It sounds like WW2 airfighter.

To me, this sl looks better than the new generation sl.

I would have it in black or dark-blue, though.

If i had the money of course ;)

[hgfecba]

i defenetly WOULD! this is a car, u know, a whole beautiful and powerful german car!

drive a ferrari all day und u will understand what his reasons r!

and hell, it wasnt an enzo, it was just a 355

[mohd222218]

SL 55 better than ferrari i have SL & and ma bro have ferrari F430 i love my car and its powerful also
