The Mercedes SL65 AMG or the BMW M6 conv.

didnt think i'd say it but i'd take the SL65 if i had the choice.

The manner in which the SL65 accelerates makes you believe that it might not be powered by an internal-combustion engine at all. The tidal wave of torque bathes the accelerative experience as if a jet turbine were involved. It feels like acceleration piled atop acceleration at an exponential rate. Several experienced drivers on the staff reported moments of I've-never-felt-anything-like-it.

As stupidly fast as the SL65 is, we cannot hide our enthusiasm for the M6 convertible on the drag strip. The surround-sound experience was uncommonly visceral. With the optional head-up display doing its part to make you feel like a fighter pilot, each pull of the shift paddle makes you feel as if you've triggered a guided missile as the M6 barks its tires and lunges ahead with every upshift.

This is an odd pairing, since the MB costs 2x as much as the M6.

M6 for me.

SL65 for me. The M6 is not all that hot, and it basically loses in all the tests. But Edmunds beign their typical self, they still decide to say that the BMW is the better car. pffff

I'm sure its going to be absolutely gorgeous but its the powerplant that worries me. Their perf. numbers dont match the styling

M6 please. But I read this comparo before and was glad to hear AMG had more going for it than some of their past offerings (body kit and an engine).

M6 isn't that great looking to me, when compared to the SL65 AMG. SL65 all the way.

I'm not terribly big on either, but I'd most likely go SL65.
