  • IN 1080p YOU PIKERS!

  • The sound of the engine id horrible, like a tin can blown on the street by the wind.

    

  • just curious. Is there a bigger douchebag than Jay Leno. I'm thinking not.

  • I would drive faster.

  • Great film!

  • yea racetrack with bad roads hahat

  • jay, please stfu and let us listen to the car?

  • trust me,Jay never once floored this car in this video.I own a 2011,and I don't car what any 18 year old kid that only thinks he knows what he is talking about from reading a magazine says,this is a fast car.I own a 69' GTO that is faster in a straight line,but doesn't handel near as good.Tthe SLS AMG does it all basically

  • That's a real road.

  • so this is a 7minute ad for the sales-faulty SLS? nice...

  • 5:06 - police car,.... I bet they give them money to not pursuite :D

  • I'll race you around that, Jay.

  • Best car ever

  • So true I've never realized either till now

  • I think the germans know about cars...

  • full gas grandpa !

  • To bad J cant drive for shit, he doesnt deserve to be in that car i go around corners better in my VR4

  • @trentledet did you really just bring a VR4 into a SLS AMG thread...LMAO

  • @comlax22 Fuck yea i did, it may only hav 437 break horses but i guarantee i could whoop J's ass in it. hit driving is pathetic

  • @trentledet I'm not implying that Leno is a great driver, but keep in mind in this video he's driving one of the first SLS cars at the time, he's talking, shooting video, keeping things interested, and doing ALL of this on a public road where he could hurt himself and take someone out. How F'd up would it be for him to crash, trying to be a hero to impress some douche like you? He's smarter than that. His driving is just fine & this video is entertaining. Take your "break" HP elsewhere.

  • @trentledet Nobody cares

  • To bad J cant drive for shit, he doesnt deserve to be in that car

  • I could watch this all day.

  • SHUT

    THE

    FUCK

    UP

    JAY

    LENO

  • @IchiDeux but... he does know what he's talking about. i don't like it much either but he's not really ever that wrong.

  • would be a nice race track

  • sound like a damn harley bike nice =D

  • i seriously got a boner from that exhaust note

  • Sounds like it has an exhaust leak! Needs an Evosport upgraded system...and me driving it how it should be driven ... on a closed Mulholland !)

  • Sounds like it has an exhaust leak! Needs an Evosport upgraded system...and me driving it how it should be driven on Mulholland!

  • nices car in the word

  • nice

  • I wonder if Jay Leno have any idea of that the Rendezvous movie was fake as hell. it wasnt a ferrari it was a mercedes dubbed with the ferrari sound and Lelouch drove the car himself not a pro f1 driver.

  • @CSOCSO : To be honest, I think Leno wouldn't care either way. It's about the impression the movie made.

  • Great sound (but he changes the rears so bad...). It's a pity the paviment were the worst in a town to drive through

  • sounds like a classic muscle car to me, nothing new!

  • i am bmw man

    but sls sound..................

  • i think am in lOve... ;o wow!!!!

  • JESUS... PLEASE EXHAUST... MARRY ME!!!

  • My dads doctor has an SLS, and I get to see that gorgeous car every time I drop him off.

  • @Mycoughlin your dads doctor sounds like he makes to much money ;)

  • @Mycoughlin your dad probably paid for it with his bills too

  • one day at the crack of sunrise, im doing this drive. amazing...

  • love that exhaust sound

  • sounds like sex

  • Sunset boulevard is a beautiful place indeed

  • learn how to switch gears.

  • what the hell is this clown doing in a car show?!?

    

  • @stcrit Jay Leno is well known as a car enthusiast. He has a collection of cars that wil make any gearhead weak at the knees ranging form some of the earliest stuff right through to the high end performance cars of today. His collection is worth over 60 million. Leno is a true car enthusiast & he plows lots of money into his cars. He also owns a racing team & is co-owner of at least one other race team.

  • @stcrit yeah bruh, go back and hide under your rock. This guy's a major petrolhead.

  • looks like where tokyo drift was filmed

  • Great Vid. Thanks for posting!! I would wash all of Mr. Leno's cars to do that lap in that car. :)

  • if any of us tried this we would have been pulled over already

  • Boring.

  • Amazing car

  • Geez... A lot of you people bitch and moan.. Just enjoy the video for what it is.

  • 13miles and he drives it in 6mins and compares it to the Nurburgring? :/

  • @authentichannibal yea well you see how theres oncoming cars from the other side yea hes not trying to race it like the nurburging but he just driving around for fun n tellin us about the his own track like the nurburgring but in la

  • why isn't he sideways?

  • somebody explain to me why every exotic/high end sports car manufacturers try to get lenos blessings whenever they come out with a new car?...i am sure he is not the only rich car guy in US...why leno?

  • @effu68 Because he got god knowledge about cars and he is that famous guy that people listen too when he says something about cars.

  • ThanX For this Video is Fantastic !

  • Why would anyone make a video about a fast car that's automatic? Its pathetic people think they can drive like a pro in an automatic.

  • @kami3233 Yeah ... the thing is just that todays dual clutch automatics like the one in the Benz shift faster than any human ever could with a manual.

  • doing the speed limit mr Leno ?

  • Comment removed

  • wait a second ik this is in california.... but why is he driving on the wrong side of the road?

  • @dubboy9001 What ?

  • @TheSwed hes driving on the wrong side of the road

  • @dubboy9001 No he's not ?

  • @TheSwed oh yeah...mybad

  • @dubboy9001 hehe :P But it would be more fun if he did :)

  • That exhaust is absolutely symphonic.

  • now do it in 7 min and 40 secs

  • what an amazing sound, but i don't think it beats the cobra stingray

  • 3:20 IS300 on the left at the redlight..........fitted with a non-turbo Supra engine (2JZ-GE) pumping out about 220bhp and 215lbft!!

    Supra - Legend

  • @755hp Ghey

  • @2003SCT Bum.....

  • @ebradahusla That's why it would be the ultimate test--so many factors would play into a good time: traffic, police, stoplights, etc.

  • this video instandly reminded me of the mulholland drive. and i was right

  • *** This is the correct video TTB***

  • The commentary fucked this video up

  • Got damn that engine is wonderful....pure love :D :D :D :D

  • love the camera on the front

  • What an epic sound!

  • love the sound

  • shitty automatic!

  • What about a video with no talking. Just the sound of the engine?

  • Thanks for sharing! I like the info Jay Leno gives! But I like the car even more! What a brutal machine!!

  • OMG what else would i want other then having this car and driving it in Beverly Hills and owning a house there too.

  • I think the Mercedes SLS is ugly compared to the Roadster. Especially if it was a McLaren Roaster.

  • This would have been a good video if it weren't for Jay commentating

  • non as fast I am, I did 80mph on sunset blvd at 2am and average 40mph on muholland drive at about 4am where police isn't avaliable at that period of time.haha

  • So, if he did those 13 miles in about 5 minutes that's an average speed of 156 mph... I guess it's not real time...

  • It sounds almost as good as the AMG engine in the Pagani Zonda R. Cant wait to get my C63 baby.

  • I wish Jay would shut up and let us listen to the engine.

  • He should have recorded his time, and request that people post response videos of improved times.

  • @MikeLenoch5 I hope you are not serious coz this is a public road, that would be silly.

  • you gotta hand it to leno, he's a really good driver

  • Why don't they ask jeremy from top gear, he would give you full story about the car and the drvinvg in it !

    not alt eh bullshit about the surroundings

  • Comment removed

  • thqt sound is incredible

  • @slim1175 cuz its prob his lmao

  • why do the get Jay Leno to dive this?

  • Im so going to drive on that road over Christmas break >:D

  • A good place for driving? The coulee region of Wisconsin! Wonderful twisty roads that have no potholes like in the city.

  • dont hate for me asking...what makes the sound when he slows down that sounds like back firing?

  • @240zguy240 back pressure from the engine coming out of the exhaust system.

  • @baker3163 ok cool. so then why does it happen on this car and not on my honda odyssey for example?

  • Just spent this weekend driving one for the first time and it is unbelieavable! The sound is even more amazing inside the car, I didn't even remember that it had a radio! Very cool car

  • Ok, this sound is so eXtrem

  • Not a normal sound for an MB.

  • @neoperseus Wich is normal cuz that's an AMG SLS

  • @neoperseus for AMGs yes

  • Listen to that fucking engine.

  • @gerfall I prefer the high buzz of a tuner

  • @javid53 Guess we all can't like the sound of a weedwhacker.

  • @javid53 You have got to be kidding. Why is it the young & the stupid of today think some 4cyl rice burner is the ultimate in noise & performance? I'll take a good V8 any day. You can keep the jap crap.

  • @MrNutter1976  okay lol. Im happy knowing an R35 will tear up the track

  • @javid53 And i'm happy knowing that a ZR1 beats the living shit out of one in the Corners and Straights.

  • @1970CamaroZ and I'm happy knowing the SLS AMG is 1000x the car the ZR1 is. The AMG is more than an expensive engine, it has actual quality to it, compared to the ZR1 "built by a fat man in Kentucky."

  • @comlax22 I'd rather have a Faster Car and one thats better looking, than one thats half assed. You wouldn't marry your wife and then divorce her because the inside of her mouth was rough would you?

  • @1970CamaroZ LOL a corvette sacrifices a lot to be how cheap it is, in other words they half assed its production to be cheap. They made it fast so some fanboys could brag when it came down to spec charts.

  • @comlax22 Have you ever driven a ZR1,or an SLS? I own a 2011 SLS AMG,and my neighbor/friend has a new ZRI.Why you think a ZRI is junk-I'll never know!

  • @comlax22 Have you ever driven a ZR1,or an SLS? I own a 2011 SLS AMG,and my neighbor/friend has a new ZRI.Why you think a ZRI is junk-I'll never know

  • @comlax22 Have you ever driven a ZRI or an SLS AMG? I own a 2011 SLS AMG,and my neighbor/friend owns a ZRI. We have raced many times.Why you think a ZR1 is junk, I will never know.

  • @peak199 Indeed, you probably never will. If you consider the ZR1's interior & build quality on par with your SLS, then you paid far too much for your SLS. Both vehicles are wonderful but the quality comparison is ludicrous.

  • @comlax22 They are not suppossed to be the same car.The SLS is not an S550. Like I asked in my first comment-have you ever driven either? Driving one,and reading about one in a magazine are 2 different things.

  • @comlax22  They are not suppossed to be the same car.The SLS is not an S550. Like I asked in my first comment-have you ever driven either? Driving one,and reading about one in a magazine are 2 different things

  • @comlax22  I can only say-go read another magazine kid.

  • @peak199 aren't you clever...an egomaniac asshole, typical.

  • @comlax22 egomaniac? I just asked if you have ever driven either one of them.Since you refused to answer,I assume the answer is no.How are you going to make those kinds of comments about a car you have never driven? You are what's typical-someone on youtube talking out of their ass!

  • Whats the posted speed limit on those streets? Are there any cops lurking around those streets? I might pay it a visit in my 5.0 Mustang.  =)

  • Comment removed

  • kinda looks like hes goin slow

  • Jamiroquailesque track!

  • woow for hollywood it sure is empty

  • That engine sounds like a caged lion that is getting a little hungry since its last meal.

  • sounds kinda muscle

  • what a sound

  • did anybody notice adam butt on the credits?

  • @carcrazzy247 oh yeah I did

    

  • just lissten to the overrun!

  • engine sound like Yamaha r1 2009 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Its not a racetrack unless theres racing :P

  • LOVE IT =)

  • That might just be the most beautiful car put into production since the turn of the century. I am not a huge German car guy, but it’s just gorgeous and nobody can deny it!

  • i think it's a great ideal someone should organise a street race there! F1/le mans /superbike?

  • Lovely car, shit circuit, shit driver. Pointless video...

  • This car is my dream. Everything about it is perfect.

  • That engine is my new favourite noise!

  • incredible sound.. usualy the american cars have the best V8 sound but this one is even better than everything else having a V8 engine. it's sooooooo brutal

  • Leno is so much better doing this than that "comedy" show crap on TV...I wish he did car shows instead!

  • The exhuast sounds like a peice of shit!!

  • This car sounds like the god of thunder's wife having an orgasm. Vrrruuuuuuummmm!!! This is youtube not redtube :P

  • lol these people driving right past jay leno not realizing it at all XD

  • im pretty sure hes not gonna find a street circuit out in the middle of nowhere.

  • this reminds me SO MUCH of burnout

  • i love jay leno!

  • 5:07 cop on the left lol

  • in poland we have better roads than that

  • Jay you went very early in the morning cause during the day and evening sunset is a busy busy road where you can not race at all but if you love driving and you live in LA i guess its what you have to do.

  • /////AMG POWER!! Too bad my E55 doesn't sound like that haha

  • grow up man it noway as good as the nurburg ring

  • @inghamj35 LOL i know but he said almost!

  • sounds like a 69/70 mustang. haha.

  • lol that shit isnt hidden..if ur into cars and driving and you live in LA u know about this passage lol

  • Theres another yankee whos astonished by the quality of european (german) cars... Simple reason: American cars suck mostly.

  • EPIC ENGINE FOR A MERCEDES.

  • @killertelletuby23 Sorry dude, Mercedes had cars that could go over 300 km/h before the second world war...

  • @OldtimerMercedesBenz it still sounds epic tho. 

  • the road is all fucked up

  • Where is the traffic? Atlanta has more traffic at 2AM then that. Also, the SLS sounds like a 69 Mustang then a modern exotic car, weird target for them to shoot for.

  • He should talk... only when he starts presenting Top Gear America...

  • sounds sweet J
