For some reason, those numbers don't seem too impressive compared to some of the current AMG offerings. The agressive looks seem like they should be hiding 500+ hp. <_<

It's not a very large car so I would imagine 360HP is more then enough to make this car fly, i'd also imagine that 500+ might make it nearly imposible to get going without melting a set of tires.

I'm sure it's a bit more bulkier than it looks. Most every MB is that way.

Its only a 2 seat conv. how bulky could it be? This thing probably weighs about at the most 3000 lbs.

HERE's some more info on the thing[/b][/quote]
That's quite the normal ignorant misconception. "It's a two seater, it must be light." Whatever.

Considering the 04 SL55 AMG weighs in at over 4300lbs according to Edmunds.com
