The Mercedes-Benz SL63 Kicherer Evo Edition

The Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG was already the sportiest models in the Mercedes lineup with 525hp. German tuner Kicherer decided to make it even better. Applying lessons learned from its previous K60 Evo, the tuner has upgraded the 6.2L V8 engine to produce 560hp and 495lb-ft of torque, putting it into near supercar territory. The 0-62mph sprint takes just 4.3 seconds (0.3 seconds faster than the standard SL63), with an electronically controlled top speed of 198mph.

Pricing for the package starts at approximately $32,175 plus, of course, the cost of the Mercedes SL itself.
