I don't like it one iota, nor the SLS that came before it. Modern Mercedes styling cues don't translate at all to this type of car. And it's probably just the photo, but that interior looks super cheap to me - like someone glued suede all over an Elantra.
I think it looks great with the one exception of the screen in the interior. Whoever came up with the "tablet resting in a pocket in the dash" look they're going with at the moment should be shot, it's literally the laziest design choice I've seen on a car interior.
No proper manual though?
Merc gave up on manuals for their top of the line stuff years ago. The SLR and SLS were both automatics.
Nulla Tenaci Invia Est Via
No three-pedal version, however the SLS and this GT are DSG, which at least gives you a direct fixed connection between engine and wheels.
That's basically it... the backend doesn't look like it belongs to me.Originally Posted by Drachen596
Completely agree on this tablet in a pocket screen trend.
How else would you integrate a touchscreen into that area of the dashboard?
Imagine stretching a thin piece of fabric over it all, and it would look fine. I don't know why it has to be so separate.
I think they've ruined the SLS with this. :\
Regarding the tablet look..., I don't mind that at all, it's just that why don't they just freaking use the ipad or allow people to use whatever tablet they want by putting up a docking station up on the dash? Will car makers really make better tablets than Apple or Samsung or whatever other tablet makers?
