Mercedes-Benz is celebrating its double triumph in the Formula 1 World Championship this year with two limited edition models of the SL 63 AMG. Co-created by the 2014 F1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton and runner-up and team-mate Nico Rosberg, the two models feature styling tweaks and performance upgrades. Mercedes-Benz will only build 19 units of each model, as each individual vehicle is dedicated to one of the 19 Formula 1 race tracks from the 2014 season.
For his car, Lewis Hamilton chose black as his base color, while Nico Rosberg went with white. Hamilton’s SL 63 AMG features a special paint finish called Designo Night Black Magno combined with gold-colored lettering, fins and stripes on the rear bumper impart. The tailpipe trim is in chromed black. Black and gold dominate the interior as well, with the SL 63 AMG featuring gold-colored stitching for the seats in black nappa leather, the instrument panel and center console, as well as gold-colored elements such as the air vents, door handles and shift paddles.
