Doug is the type of guy to rev a Tesla in a tunnel
PC Ian Morris niice😭
😂😂😂
pretty sure you'd blow the engines up too
Nice.
Doug is the type of guy to place a camera at the back of a tesla and then start it.
Doug the type of guy lock himself in the trunk to make sure the emergency trunk release works
hahahaha, i cant :'D
Creepy button in a trunk & all modern german car's like Mercedes Benz have electrical issue's.A mechanical release trunk would be more reliable.
Can we keep same líkes on this coment and the tesla one
LOL
Lol there is 911 likes
*kidnaps somebody in sl65 black series* *they push trunk escape button*
Downforce from the wing: allow me to introduce myself
Gotta drive fast if you don’t want em running!

Good one
The QR code is actually called a "rescue code." Its for firefighters or emergency personnel. If they have access to the code it can show them where it's safe on the car to cut into without deploying an airbag if they need to save your life.
yeah, but doug is an idiot. yet he reviews cars
or to extract your dead body
@@KiXneeL Lmao
"OMG THE CAR IS ON FIRE... WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!?!?"
"wait up lemme scan this QR code"
@@mustafa8554 dumbass comment. Usually when a car needs to be cut it ain’t on fire. It only needs to be cut if someone is stuck that’s always because of impact.

Doug the type of guy to wave at you with both hands
Doug type of guy who thinks a traditional handshake counts as "dap".
Doug the type of guy to piss in a cup and call it self-made lemonade
Xavier Mondragon Jr yeah no, not at all. Not a good Doug type of guy comment.
Benjamin Meade It's funnier than yours I mean wtf is a dap
Xavier Mondragon Jr "Dap" is an old old wooden ship.
Uncle had a cl63 AMG tuned to over 780 hp. With traction control off, even going over 100kmh if you floored it the car's backside would slide. It could easily start spinning if you weren't careful. I'm guessing this pretty much does the same. The power on these cars is insane.
I just love Doug's expression when he tests the throttle and performance - true enthusiast!
Damn this car has a timeless look to it. 10 years old and it still is just as beautiful as the day it came off the assembly line.
Agreed, I dont know why they dont use the design language in these in their actual lighter sports cars.
This and clk gtr....
yeah except now you can get one here in Vancouver, Canada for $70K Canadian Dollars lol that's almost 80% depreciation in about 12 years! Beautiful cars but my god what a waste of money. Also even at $70K I'd hate to know how much maintenance on these things cost lol I'll stick to my 2007 Honda lol
@@DamienMalakay 70K?!?!? here in the US there's examples for near half a million.. i need to find one like that
@@DamienMalakay an sl 65 amg black series ? ! , give me the link please
@@DamienMalakay I cant find anything for less than $400k
Let’s be honest here… If that fuel door wasn’t carbon fiber Doug would complain about it.
Yeah, there's no pleasing this guy. Check out how he makes a big deal of how Mercedes only made 350 of these for the entire world, then he acts like a complete jerk mocking how the owner might point out that it says 1 of 175 in the U.S.A. on the gear lever.
most likely its carbon fiber just cause they use leftovers for them
He loves to complain
B p. MMB
Just on a side, I was always wondering why during his 'driving experience' sections like 20:40 does he not have another inlay view of a second camera showing the driver's perspective?
This is MY dream. I absolutely love the styling, as well as the performance. I’ve always been in love with it.
Me too, my friend.
Had the pleasure on working one of these 💪🏽🔥 truly amazing machinery
This in my opinion was the best looking Benz ever made
Horizon I agree.
together with the slr, i agree
Definitely, especially in black, metallic gray or even red. Mean looking.
‘37 540k special roadster is most beautiful Mercedes ever made
Sls begs to differ, as well as the Stirling Moss thingy
Doug is the type of guy to film a white Black series Mercedes
Jesus Christ Jesus Christ.
black panther nah Doug embraces them at this point
😂😂😂😂
yammmit rip
thanks jesus
Never realised the wing raised & lowered from the cabin in these. That's awesome. And that's why Doug's videos are brilliant!
I’ve seen one of these on the actual road! A once in a lifetime experience. 😮
Doug is type of guy to read car manual to his kids before bed time!
Ayman Lockhart 😂😂😂 fuck😂
Lol i have a 1948 Studebaker manual and i imagined Doug reading it before bed.
Lol I can see him doing that someday.
You're not a car guy if you don't read your car manual to your kids at bedtime.
Thank you, this gave me a good laugh.
Doug is nearly breaking a million views on all of his videos. That's insane! Very impressive.
Vehicle Virals Doug the type of guy to remain unimpressed even after a billion video views
Thats cuz doug is the type of guy to get those views
Yootoob celery 10k/HOUR CEO
Yeah his subscribers and viewing figures are really shooting up. Dude's obviously doing something right!
he deserves it, his videos are great!
The wide body treatment on this car is perfect. Its so aggressive,, yet classy and tasteful.. One of my favorite cars of all time.
FUN FACT. First Aid Kit is mandated by government in Germany, that's why it has that in the owner's manual.
"The SL isn't the most beautiful car"
Gives it 8/10 for styling.
"The Continental GT is absolutely gorgeous"
Gives it 7/10 for styling.
This guy is confused.
I assume maybe “beautiful” means to OTHER people, meaning many people would find a Bentley beautiful but HIS score likes the sportier cars better than the more tame.
SO confused, but more BLIND than anything. Its styling is a 10 still and its 10 years old. Look at those lines!!
Doug, I'm dumping u. Lately ur judgment has been annoyingly off
@@almightywhitey6955 This thing looks terrible tho
Some Weeb thos thing looks beatiful man
Because this black series is white
I really appreciate the fact that Doug doesn’t click bait, unlike lots of other car channels
Luke O'Connor i dont even think he knows how😂😂😂
SLC coupe from the 70s is absolutely gorgeous, Doug has gone mad
13:55 As a former car detailer, if I ever was given this car to detail, for a shoot or not, I'd probably have spent an inordinate amount of time off clock trying to straighten out the fibers in the gearshift section. I know it's because cars sit in park longer than any other spot, but man that would make me want to at least make it look great for the camera. What if a french fry got down there lol
😂😂
Doug the type of guy to borrow a car and sell the owner's manual on Ebay
😂😂😂 one of the best ones ive seen lmfao
Hilarious comment!
Stonks
😂😂😂😂
Doug is the type of guy to ACTUALLY READ the TERMS AND CONDITIONS PAGE line by line before clicking the "I have read" box.
Isnt that a little bit hasrh?
Lol
And that's a bad thing ?!?
haha your face on the second go is totally priceless man, this car is BRUTAL. Thanks for all your delightful work through the years Doug, that's priceless too!
On a normal SL the roof, and roll bar control switches are located where that one has the start button, the blank buttons are for the wing mirrors folding system, ABC System, suspension UP/DOWN, adaptive cruise control distance adjustment, parking sensors sound turn off, ESP switch, the START/STOP switch it´s on the top of the gear lever, and some others I don´t remember now, on my regular SL I only have two blank switches, I´m so proud.... hehehehehe
Can we just take a moment and appreciate the fact that Doug included the fuel economy in l/100km?
yes, that was helpful for me as well
Sureeeeeee
And he converted the average speed to litres per 100km instead of the actual mpg. As if the car is doing 37 mpg.
Man... I miss those days when Mercedes used to make ridiculously powerful AMG Black series. These felt like they've been directly imported from Need for Speed.
Arham M. Khan My favorite car from Hot Pursuit 2010.
This, and there is no denying, is THE ABSOLUTE BEST sound exhaust in the history of the automobil. Ever. Period.
I love mercedes but the LFA takes that crown easily
@@MaybeProllyIdk Fair enough. I'm more into deeper sounding engines with like a lions roar sound but the LFA has one hell of a sound
You’d think Doug would be a fearless driver given all the different cars his driven.
I kind of understand why Doug is careful. These are super expensive cars he drives in open public roads and they are not his nor is he used to the car's configuration. I would drive careful too.
Doug is the type of guy to make a special segment just for my left ear 3:54
for a sec i had to go back and wander if my headphones went bad lmao

*The QR code is for rescue personnel* - in the event they have to cut the car open, you don't want them cutting into the explosive airbag, flammable fuel tank, or electrified battery
12799MaDeuce So instead you want them to open the fuel door, take off their protective gloves, look for their smartphone, scan a QR code, wait for a website to load and then look at various images until they know which areas of the car they should avoid during rescue. Makes sense.
Why doesn't he know that? I have the feeling the US is a few decades behind when it comes to safety. A few videos ago he didn't know what a rescue blanket was.
Verrückter Wissenschaftler cause we here in murica don't care bout no safety. We die like men, being electrocuted, while on fire, and getting punched in the face by the airbag.
You can also have a a sticker on the side window that says that there is a Rescue Card inside car. Usually in the glove box. Doesn't take that many seconds to look at. Not all accidents are life treating where you have to get the person out in seconds. Also I don't watch Doug for his knowledge of cars. I watch him because he is enjoyable to watch even if he is wrong sometimes.
12799MaDeuce I'm pretty sure rescue personnel know where the gas tank, battery, and airbags are...if they have to cut you out of the car I doubt they can access the fuel door button *inside the car*
The closest I can get to this is the Feltzer :(
One of my dream cars. Just love how these cars look
Nice touch with the L/100km conversion. Cup holders are also back in your agenda. Thumbs up for that.
yea i really apreciated that conversion :)
Indeed. Makes it easier to understand for people who don't use imperial measurment units, so we don't have to do the conversion ourselves every time. Now if he'd do the same for other stats like torque that would be perfect.
Doug.. review a yellow school bus
tommy d u b b s Doug the type of dude to search up car reviews through the askjeeves website and Yahoo sometimes
Why? You planning on buying one?
Yeah he should review some drugs!
Mark Shkurko arent we all?
These are the best looking "6-spoke" wheels ever, because they are split spokes. Normally they look so cheesy but the design in these is absolutely phenomenal and totally fits the car. Well done, M-B.
It's almost 2023 and i still fkn love this car, it could compete with any of it's rivals. This car has aged so good

not funny? :/

One of the sexiest cars ever built. PERIOD!!
nothing compares to a factory wide body kit. nothing aftermarket can compare. beautiful!
LFA
The LFA is the best sounding car ever made in my opinion. But... it’s not beautiful.
Huh
Sounds as good as the LFA.
I think the QR code on the inside of the fuel door is so that if they have to cut you out of a wrecked car, they won't cut into the fuel take, high pressure hydraulics, or hi power electrical lines
How nice of the owners to trust you with their cars....and for that guy to tell you to roast the tires, what a awesome guy! :)
Review a horse carriage.
Munozl360 Doug the type of guy to quantify the horse power in a two horse carriage
10/10 would watch
Don't bring in horses. After reviewing horse, he will take off one point of Doug Score for all cars that doesn't reproduce naturally.

Acuravigor47 shut up
SSS Dias It can't even put power to the ground going 60 what part of that makes you think it needs an extra 200 horse lmao
Nicholas lmao it does
Nicholas i hate when people say oh it doesnt need more horsepower like what the heck you go as much horsepower as you want ya it doesnt need that much it also doesnt "need" 661 horsepower to go 60 down the highway whats your point why not just get a built motor and make it 1500hp it doesnt matter no need to stop unless you want to
kkhehehhehehehehe ........he.............hehe.....
I saw one of these in person before it was delivered to a customer at a MB dealer. This car was so fucking cool in person, and video/pictures don't do it justice.
I'm binge watching his videos during this lockdown. Somehow this guy has managed to convinced me to do this... 😂
Doug the type of guy hop in a Uber and give the driver a Doug score when he hops out
Lol....
Value: 0
Importance: 0
good one...lol
The Racing Pigeon Club everyone can give Uber a score
You are supposed to download and print out that security card (behind the QR code) and stick it unter your driverside sunshade. If you get into an accidents, fireman can use it to safely cut you out of the car without exploding an airbag or cutting into the fuel tank. Its common practice in germany!
muh1h1 shut up smart ass
muh1h1 it's not common here
wow rude ass
“Some interesting quirks & features of user *Chthonian121* is that he is both homophobic AND racist....
Now although having both of such features together is quite common, it is becoming more of a rarity in 2018 to find even just one of these....that is, unless you’re reading comments on CZcams.”
-What I think Doug would say if he were to give any fucks
Muh1h1 Didn’t say anything wrong your all having a go at him and he did nothing he was stating a fact and educating you dumb fucks hating on him for nothing

For those like me who came here for the engine sound
Ciao Doug! I follow you from Italy and I really think you are the best guy for cars video review in the world! Thank you so much for what you have done and for what you will do in the future! Pls never stop! Ciao e grazie ancora!!!
"Door painel storage harmony" please someone make a compilation of Doug's quirky vocabulary
Yet he doesn't know the term "telephony".
Gutierrez Rodrigues dos Reis then make a doug score of all his quirky vocabulary.
We will then inspect all that quirky vocabulary, and give it a Doug score.
I want a compilation of his voice cracks haha
This knobby stereo button array of sound changing bliss (equalizer)
my right ear is lonely
I like Doug, but his audio recording is always terrible.
So is Doug
If you're on windows just adjust the sound balance from the "playback devices" menu by right clicking the audio icon in the bottom right. Helps a lot.
😂
I thought my headphones broke....got all pissed off and shit....damnit doug
This has always been one of the very first cars I buy on any of the Forza Motorsport or Horizon games. It looks like a monster just sitting still. It looks so wide that it gives the impression that a semi would be like "let me just go ahead and get out of your way here..."

Or after a session of love-making
“This spaghetti is super quick. Uncooked to al dente in 6 minutes flat. That earns it a ten out of ten.”
“Starting with the weekend categories, this spaghetti is attractive, but it’s nothing revolutionary. However, I do like the sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top of the sauce, which earns a 6 out of ten.”

Wtf
You don't?
I think this is a cool looking car especially since it is a 2009 model. The styling is still impressive. Not to mention the HP.
It has the same hp as a murcielago sv.......
One of the best looks of the SL. Recently the design gets better again.
Aged quite well for a 2009
please don't use the word "cool" to describe a car. mkay? thanks pinhead.
But the styling of the pixel display in the gauge cluster started to "get old reaallllly fast."

When he said that I right away thought it be funny if someone commented saying what you said, then marking the exact time it took 😂
Doug the type of guy to have his own units of time
I would still take this over the new 2024 AMG GT Coupe
If I remember correctly when Jeremy drove it on Top Gear it was almost impossible to do so without the traction control or you'd be replacing another set of rear tires.
So nobody is worried about the left speaker balance?

The owner seems like a cool guy
where did you see the owner?
Lyubomir Georgiev from the looks of it..
You don't have to see the owner...He says "burn the tires I'm about to get new ones" That's pretty dope.
oh my bad i missed that part. Yeah he sounds epic actually
This is still one of my favorite cars ever made. Insane!!!
You nailed it. If you see this car and you know what it is, you flip out. Saw one around Walnut Creek California in about 2010 or so. I'll never forget it.
'350 for entire planet and only 175 came to the USA'. Unthinkable.

10:12 is my favorite statement every made by this man
What a treat to see, inspect, review and DRIVE!!
These owners are such great dudes. "I have old tyres, a guy i dont know wants to use my 300k car for a video. Sure why not, be sure to push the car so you roast the tyres mate". Good god i love those guys. Shout out to all of you owners! Thanks for the content!

Good news!!!
Fiat Multipla also please.
I am Romanian!The Dacia Sandero is not for sale in the US
What about Fiat Panda?
Trank you for converting the fuel consumtion into the metric system :)
Doug, I like all of yor Videos! As an SL R230 driver / owner I need to write a short comment: As in USA you need to have something to open the trunk from the inside - we don´t have that in europe - we need to have the first aid kit always in the "fresh" condition. Our police / transport department will check if the first aid kit is over-time! Also the sticker in the fuel tank cover is part of our law and is desinged to help emergency stuff like fire fighters to help in case of heavy collission. As you talk about the missing switches in the middel blelow the gear changer: You are wrong, the switch for the rove is located normaly where the SL Black Series have the starter button! The "blank" switches are for the electric mirrors to fold to the car, to switch of a towing alarm, ABC suspension mode and so on - but the SL Black Series seems not to have this installed. As you talk about the small light about the open trunk: If you start to drive with the open trunk you will directly have a bis flashing red display in the central gauge cluster, so you will automaticly be warned. Sorry if my writing is wrong, I´m not native english speaker! Cheers and pls go on make such good quality videos!
At 3:54 the audio is only on the left
Stops at 5:50
Thought I went deaf
Not good when I only had the right ear pod in.....#confused
Both sides but right side is low
Just hit that and noticed immediately
Every video - "this is one of Mercedes' best cars"
Andrew R seems like Mercedes does lots of good Mercedes-Benz Modells
actually, he didn’t like their 9-seater
mipmipmipmipmip haha, I forgot that one..
The blank buttons in the center control the regular suspension in the SL’s which used the Amazing but delicate ABC suspension.
Which the black series used a standard sport suspension instead! Which in fact makes this version more reliable.....
I saw a matte black version of this with green calipers and it cemented this car as my dream car

From the insanely dumb quirks on a strange little hapless car...to enjoying the wild power of, or over the top features of various supercars. You're not always spot on with details, but the fun of watching overcomes that by far. Happy to be a subscriber for a few years now. Thanks, Doug!
SL65 is one of my favorite cars of all time and just love how the spoiler creeps up on him during accelerations! So jealous... :(

@20:08: When acceleration makes Doug's eyes widen, it's pretty damn fast. "Like I got kicked in the back"......yep. Doug you are a lucky Dog to drive all these awesome toys.
@8:21 I like how Doug double-checks the reality itself at the end. Thanks for shaking it to confirm it is really the reflection of your hand.
Nice car tho
