The Prior Design has revealed a new tuning package called the PD Series based on the Mercedes SL R230 and inspired by the SL65 AMG Black Series. Just-in-time approach, Mercedes was finished just in time that to be viewed at this year’s Tuning World Bodensee.
Prior Design has taken the elegance of the SL R230 and added the aggressiveness of the AMG Black Series. The Mercedes frontal has got a front spoiler with large, greedy air inlets and futuristic facelift headlights a-la-R230. The vented bonnet found on the Black Series is eliminated making the bonnet appear to be lifted straight from the R230. The side gets imposing wheel arches and a perfectly rounded rear bumper from one wheel arch to the other.
Rear of the Mercedes SL R230 PD Series is a bit more original and a lot more edgy as compare that two Mercedes’ this car is based on. The trapezoidal exhaust tailpipes have been switched out for quad round tips and the rear spoiler looks to have sharper edges. Based on racing technology, it also gets a diffuser and the use of an Airmatic suspension to make sure the car hugs the ground appropriately. The whole package is finished with wheel rim PD1 (three-piece stainless steel outer bed, black finish).
The Mercedes SL R230 PD Series looks best, but the specs of its engine has not been unveiled yet. It is being expected that the newly tuned one will carry the setup found in the AMG Black Series for a seriously thrilling ride.
