Roger Federer "flips out" over the SLS AMG Roadster

I suppose that when Roger Federer agreed to appear in and later recorded this brief video aboard a brand-new SLS AMG Roadster, he had by no means been facing our Rafa Nadal, since he surely would not have worn that happy expression, even if he was surprised by the performance of the latest German gem.

Setting tennis speculation aside, the truth is that this tennis superstar makes very clear the sensations a vehicle like the new Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster can deliver. It is a supercar which, as you well know, is equipped with an enormous 6.3-litre V8 producing 563 CV, a beast that truly looks supernatural in this peculiar video.

Many have criticised this model for something as fleeting as losing its distinctive gullwing doors. Personally, I am one of those who thinks that the coupé version is there for that purpose. Anyone who wants a myth on wheels should stick with that version; for everyone else, especially those who need and can afford a hairdryer this expensive and want to wear the same dreamy expression as Federer, I recommend the SLS Roadster.
