Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster Undisguised

The topless AMG SLS out playing in Hamburg

It’s not too hard to tell we’re coming up to two major motors shows in April – the New York Motor Show and the Shanghai Motor Show.

Earlier today we had the first real photos of the 2012 BMW M5, and now we get a completely undisguised Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster out playing in Hamburg.

Of course, we’ve already seen the SLS Roadster without any disguise in the 2011 Super Bowl advert from Mercedes. But this is the first time we’ve seen it out on the road with (almost) no camouflage.

Not surprisingly, the SLS without a top still looks rather appealing. It may not have the USP of a set of retro-looking Gullwing doors, but it does have a benefit that possibly outweighs that – the sound of its glorious V8 when the roof is down.

We shouldn’t have to wait long for a full set of photos and proper detail as the SLS AMG Roadster is – we’re almost certain – going to launch at the New York Motor Show at the end of the month.

More then.
