Carlsson options for the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

Merzig-based Mercedes-Benz tuning specialist, Carlsson, is offering a range of modifications for the SLS AMG Coupé and Roadster models. Firstly, the Carlsson Tronic lift kit, designed to work in conjunction with the company’s adjustable coilover suspension, allows the driver raise their car by 40 mm – at the flick of a switch, avoiding potential damage to expensive bumpers and undersides on rough roads and speed bumps. A nice touch is the fact that the suspension is linked to the car’s data line, meaning that it can detect the car’s speed, and if it travels above 80 km/h will automatically drop the car back down to its original ride height. The complete set is priced at € 9,980.
Those lightweight 1/10 UL alloy wheels are available in 20 and 21-inch diameter from € 9,600.
Inside the cabin, the SLS is treated to Nappa leather with owners able to specify such details as piping and stitching colour, special embroidery and punches etc. Prices start at € 4,284 for a simple seat and headrest re-trim, but if your budget stretches a little further, you can also have your dashboard, centre console, armrest, door panels and handles coated – for a total of € 11,519. Other materials on offer include Alcantara, carbon and wood.
