Kicherer SLS AMG Black Edition – Click above for high-res image gallery

The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is an attractive and classy high-performance aspirational vehicle. Naturally, the tuner parade will seek to make improvements, regardless of necessity. In lieu of a works AMG Black Series, Kicherer has elected to create its own “Black Edition.”

The neo-Gullwing is wrapped in matte black foil and gets blacked-out badging and grillework, a lip spoiler, and tweaked rear bumper details. Oh, and let’s not forget the black wheels that look as if they came off the rack at your local tire store. Awful. Still, we’re sure the valets at the Mall of the Emirates will be ecstatic.

Under the skin, Kircherer re-flashes the Benz’s ECU, then adds a new exhaust system and adjustable suspension. Power output is supposedly elevated to a brawny 620 horses. We’ll take that extra muscle and leave the tediously predictable appearance mods to others. Kicherer’s website doesn’t have any pricing info posted yet (as if you care, anyway). It does have techno music, though. Fist pumps all around.
