Mercedes-Benz unveiled its new 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series in the U.S. at the 2008 LA Auto Show yesterday. We have to say, seeing the SL 65 AMG Black Series in person is a totally different experience then seeing it in press photos.

Only 175 units will make it to the U.S. so you better get your hands on one quick. Pricing starts at a whopping $300,000.
