New York Auto Show, 2009 - Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG

I went to the 2009 New York International Auto Show at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, and it was my first show with my digital camera. I snapped away to my heart's content.

 

First up is a Mercedes-Benz SL65, with the AMG package. Benzes of any kind are kind of exclusive, but at over $181,000, the SL65 is really exclusive! More like exclusionary!

 

It bears a 6.0-liter V12 engine, with 36 valves, and 604 horsepower. It only gets fifteen miles a gallon in combined city/highway driving, but does anyone who can afford this car care about fuel economy?
