How amazing is the 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG? Auto website Cars.com called it “the best-performing Mercedes ever made,” praising the car’s stunning gull-wing design, near-perfect 47/53 front-to-rear weight distribution, 563-hp V-8 engine,  and innovative seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

The SLS AMG was inspired by the 1950s Mercedes-Benz 300 SL gull-wing coupe, one of the most iconic and collectible pieces of automotive art ever.

This one-owner example arrives with only 2,802 miles on the odometer. Finished in rare AMG Alubeam Silver ($12,750 Option) with Black designo Exclusive Leather, this SLS also adds optional Band & Olufsen 1000 Watt Sound System and Carbon Fiber Trim to compliment the extensive list of standard features.

“The car gets plenty of attention to begin with,” noted Cars.com, “but throw a [gull-wing] door open and every man, woman, child and a fair percentage of nearby animals will turn their heads.”

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is a stunner, and this like-new example is the one to own.

Update: Sorry, but this vehicle has found a home with one lucky Isringhausen customer.
