It seems they will have this SL built by amg and the amg gt convertible shuddered while keeping the amg gt coupe. Makes sense coupe drives typically want the most sporty option whereas convertible can be more A sporty GT convertible

Always great to have a lot of choices
I have heard the same, and they should all be quite nice. Most unfortunate about the loss of the S coupes and even cabs, although the coupes are the lookers.
Definitely a shame, the S-Coupe is a stunner, especially always loved the lack of a b-pillar.

I'm looking forward to the next SL, I liked the R130, but last one I really loved was the R129, could never get into the design of the R131. Hopefully they will shake the old man image with AMG making the car, just don't put the damn 4-pot in the car and keep V8 and add the new M256 I6 while adding in some modern styling and it should be great!
