Finally - Mercedes-Benz has upgraded the design of the SLC Gullwing prototype from that horrible Viper looking body style. The SLC Gullwing will take the crown from the current high-performance Stuttgart king - the 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series.

Power is expected to come from an AMG 6.3 liter V8 engine producing up to 600-hp. Rest to 60mph is expected to come in at 3.8 seconds with a top speed of more than 200mph. The engine will be mated to a new Sportshift gearbox.

Check out these latest pictures of the SLC Gullwing with its driver-side door raised.
