    Sls & r8

    Helped a friend pick up his SLS this weekend. A bit Cramped inside at 6'4 but an amazing looking car!

    Pictures dont do the SLS justice. I thought it was an ugly car from seeing the pics but after seeing it in person I love the car, but would get a 458 over it anyday, but like everything its a matter of taste. Looks great next to the R8

    SLS does look much more interesting in person. Agreed on the cramped quarters as well.

    But overall, I like it.

    I thought it looks ugly in pictures, it's even uglier in real life.

    However, it's certainly a matter of taste

    No way is the car ugly - not even close...

    Your friend picked the right colors. It's an interesting grand touring car but not a sports car, IMO. Doesn't offer a true manual, either. Its most interesting feature are the doors but you can't very well drive around with them open so they are only interesting when at rest. I agree that it is far better-looking in person than in pictures but I doubt I'll ever buy one. Just wasn't in love with it.
