It is kind of ironic that Black Series AMG models look their best in any color other than black. But that’s true, and this magnificent red SLS AMG Black Series is a case in point. Spotted in Roermond, Netherlands, this car is also one of the sexiest SLS models we’ve ever seen.
One of the reasons why Mercedes SLS Black Series looks great in non-black colors – apart from the fact that AMG’s palette includes a range of amazing vibrant colors – is because of all the exposed carbon fiber bits on its body. They form the aero kit that sets the Black Series apart from normal models, and include front spoiler lip and winglets, side skirts, side vents, mirror caps, rear diffuser and rear wing. The car also comes as standard with gloss black wheels.
