On Saturday, I was in Chicago again and brought 2 cameras (in case my main one ran out of battery, which it did) to go back to my favorite part of the city: the Gold Coast. There they have one of the best dealerships I have ever been to, Bentley/Bugatti Gold Coast on Rush St. Since the last time I went, when they had a Bugatti Veyron, they have gotten a lot of new inventory, much better than the last time I went. They haven't sold the Veyron yet, in fact I saw the dealers driving it around the streets of Chicago late at night, so I got another look at it. But since I have already taken a full photoshoot of the Bugatti, I had to pay attention to the other cars there - which included a Ferrari 458 Italia, Porsche Carrera GT, several Lamborghini's and Bentley's and this Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series.
This is not the luxury Mercedes your boss would drive. With the price tag of over $300,000, it takes CEO money to buy one, but this SL65 Black is a real supercar that is best driven by a race car driver or a fighter pilot. The engine is a twin turbo V12 that is capable of 670 horsepower, and the top speed is almost 200 mph, making it almost as fast as other Mercedes supercars such as the CLK GTR and SLR McLaren. This is my first time seeing a "Black Series" Mercedes, it's just an awesome car and it looked great in white. Hopefully soon I will buy a 1:18 model of it.
Soon I will write about the 458 and Carrera GT

so you enjoy walking through dealerships?? It used to be my favourite place too. Because it gives you the chance to see the best motorvehicles there are. The Mercedes amg coupe is a beautiful babe, I would kill for that car.
ReplyDeleteNice you took your camera with you!
