The Gullwing is coming back




There's been rumors circulating for some time now that Mercedes-Benz is in the process of resurrecting the legendary Gullwing, but up until now, photographic evidence has revealed little about the model. Today, however, that's all about to change, as we have some incredible shots showcasing the model from a number of different angles. To my knowledge, it's the fist time the new Gullwing doors have been caught on camera. Aside from the photos, facts about the Mercedes SLC remain scarce. Most speculate the model will be priced above the next SL range but well below the current SLR (somewhere in the neighborhood of $200,000), with power expected to come from AMG's 6.3-Liter V8 boasting an enhanced output of around 600 horsepower.At this point, however, it's still anyone's guess what the final specifications will be. We will of course keep you posted if we hear anything new; in the meantime, keep scrolling to see the Mercedes-Benz SLC Gullwing spy photo collection in its entirety (click any picture to enlarge).And to Mike, the gentleman gracious enough to send us the photos: many thanks for the tip my good sir; we sincerely appreciate it.
