- It just started as a stupid bet:"my car is faster than yours" kind of thing. Well we took our respective car to Laguna Seca to see what's what. And the verdict is...
Watch the video to find out.
Also leave your comments below to give your opinion on what car you prefer 65 or 63 and why?

Racing with the top down creates more vacuum, which ostensibly would slow the car down.
yup, raced with top down once, reason I was slower, haha.
Great video, you deserve more subs
Thanks!
less talky talky, more showy showy
What a waste of an opportunity with two great cars. A proper pair of twats!
Thank god for fast forward option.
I watched paint dry on the wall waiting for this video to finally get somewhere
did you ? i did ffw.d and I only saw a guy whos driving like my grandma and a racer wannabe with two size bigger overall and cheap 50 bucks SH tires 🤡
I prefer the SL65. More and easier performance potential starting with modern Michelin Cup2's to actually put the power down. 65's are much quicker cars on these modern state of the art tires. Plus they're built better with larger fuel tanks and a special grade of V12 exclusive leather. The AMG suspension tune is smoother than the track hardened 63's firmer ride. Hold value much better too even with regular usage. It's only 118 lbs heavier than a 63 so not much difference in reality versus theory.
My 09 SL63 is scary fast.
my 11 sl550 is scary fast as well, I really don't want any more power than 400, feel I'd do something stupid.
Racing whith the roof down was an excellent idea, the car turns a lot faster!!!, the weight is down and is a lot more traction.
Rematch with both of y'all on the same tires!
Merci! Fun video. By extrapolating the conclusion of this experiment, my SL550 should be the fastest of them all.
Maybe coordinate "comparable" tires, also switch cars mid day.🤙🏼
cabin seems pretty loud on the highway or is it the camera ?
camera mic is not that great.
Bolero is amazing music!…)
738 lb/ft of torque you better have damn good tires or it will be like you are on an ice rink.
I prefer the look of the 2005 version. I also am toying with the tought of getting an SL65. I dont know why but its just more special. Also I feel like a V12 fits the character of the car better. And it will demolish the 55 or 63 on the Autobahn. How is the reliabilty of the SL65. Did you have any issues with the car maintenance wise ?
I have to admit the SL65 is pretty costly to maintain. Tires, brakes is one thing. They go quicker than a normal car due to power and torque. Then mechanicals are occuring once a while: engine mount, air conditionning, engine control unit, are some of the parts/work that needed to be redone.
But I wouldn't change the car no matter what. I love it.
I have one and let me tell you I love it ,10/10 experience. The meintance cost is pretty high at least for the 2006 model. And yeah I totaly agree with you the V12 model is really special, the sound the V12 badge and this devilishly strong and smoth tork make this car trully special. And one more thing, it isn't a sport cat it's a power crusier but it still kicks when you floor it.

Actually the SL63 AMG has 510hp and 590lb-ft of torque vs the SL65 AMG 620hp and 738lb-ft of torque. In a straight line both of these cars will cancel each other out at 3.6 secs in 0to60 and 11.8 secs quarter mile.
So no sound test
Didnt hear any of the flybys
Come on...
What year's?
what years are the cars? 2011
Why didn't you make straight test like a quarter mile or something?
because it seems a test on the track is more conclusive than a straight test. Plus we had no quarter mile straight we could use and couldn't shut down the track for ourselves.
@@FastToysClub Do they feel any different when you drive them due to the front weight?
@@dolgacevairina69 Hard to say since we drove our respective car and never swapped. But it's true that the added weight of the SL65 doesn't help on the track.
@@FastToysClub I don't get one thing: why is first hand 65 line mercedes engine almost twice more expensive than 63, if it can't get the job done? What's the purpose of that extra spending from an owner's perspective?
@@dolgacevairina69 That's a good question :-) I still prefer the V12 over the V8 just because it's a V12! Very subjective answer I admit.
Rematch, both cars running 4S's
His(65's) tires must have been near bald? because the A/S 3 michelins are my personal pick for sl's, best tire ever as the grip is endless.
Grip might be good for cold weather and wet surfaces, but not on the race track in CA ;-)
@@FastToysClub oh yeah I live in Pennsylvania, I love all season tires.
do not waste your time with this video, it's click bait it's just him talking
Who does this guy think he is?? Damon hill??
i'm french but i'm really pissed to see that many french in the usa have such a creepy french accent it is horrible. they don't even try. typical french. it is s o annoying that they don't even try. this v12 mercedes can not be compared to the 63 amg because this v12 although being a nice engine is a very old engine. with 4 cylinders more than the 63 amg, the 65amg has almost same numbers. if it was using the same technology it should have 580x1.5 = 870 HP. using the lastest technology from the 45amg it should have 400x3=1200hp. ok cooling has to be considered. I never understood why Mercedes never released a V12 with the 45AMG technology / advancement. It will be a bad ass car with already existing technology so cost can be kept relatively ok. The limitations I see are cooling (cooling 1200hp is an issue for a daily drivable car) and new transmission needed and need differential. But for Mercedes I would not be surprised it it was possible. sad Mercedes did not go that way only for historical purpose in order to produce the " last almighty v12"
Tzwixi you are the first one saying I have a typical French accent. Many people can’t figure my accent because it’s not typical French. But I do have an accent. And I always will. Anyway everybody got an accent. Even Americans...
yea the s65 is already a handful and can be easily tuned for more. Brabus has made one where they detuned it becuse the car can't handle something like that
More money than God and leaves shit tires on both cars? I don't get it?
You underestimated the grip with all season tyres. Get Real🙄🙄🙄
Typical racer ...no grip GP2 ! Lol
Full of excuses 65 is a unbalanced terrible car slush box gearbox overweight and high maintenance
john thompson yes to all that, but I love it! 👌
power is nothing without control i still wait an upload with 65 engine with proper tires (new ) and a propper driver ..its been 20 years now.
Driver drove the car at the limit of what tires could do. But that was the point of the video: to see if a driver with skills and shitty tires could outmatch a more casual driver with good tires.
