AUSTRALIA TO ONLY GET THE HOTTEST MERCEDES-AMG SL IN AUSTRALIA
By JEFFREY GIBBS
Mercedes-Benz Australia has recently confirmed the launch of the highly anticipated MercedesAMG SL 63 for July of this year, much to the delight of car enthusiasts across the country.
The SL 63 is the flagship model and the only one to be offered in Australia, ruling out the less powerful SL 43 and SL 55 models. MercedesBenz Australia has stated that the decision was made to prioritise their customers’ wants and needs.
The SL 63 is a powerful model, with a twinturbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine producing 430kW of power and 800Nm of torque. It is mated with a nine-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, making it a formidable car on the road.
The previous model, the SL 55, also used a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine but produced 350kW of power and 700Nm of torque. The SL 43 model, revealed last year, was the first four-cylinder SL in almost 60 years and was expected to launch in late-2022.
It featured a 2.0-litre turbo four with 280kW and 480Nm, mated with a 48V mild-hybrid system, rear-wheel drive, and the nine-speed dual-clutch auto.
The global SL range is not yet complete, with Mercedes-Benz teasing a Maybach-badged version last year and spy photos showing that MercedesAMG is working on plug-in hybrid versions of the SL.
Mercedes-AMG has a couple of plug-in hybrid powertrains it could use in the SL, such as the C63 S E Performance’s
2.0-litre turbo four with total system outputs of 500kW and 1020Nm, and the GT 63 S E Performance’s twinturbo 4.0-litre V8 with 620kW and 1400Nm in total.
It is a shame that the SL 43 and SL 55 models will not be available here in Australia, as they would have been well-suited to the local market. However, with the powerful SL
63 on the horizon, car enthusiasts across the country can look forward to experiencing a thrilling driving experience.
The SL 63 is sure to excite, and will be a welcome addition to the range of cars available in Australia. With its impressive power and torque, it is set to be a formidable force on the roads.
The 1960s saw a generational divide in the United States. The younger generations, represented by the hippie movement, sought to live life their own way, while their more conservative counterparts, like Pastor Chuck Smith of Southern California, sought to maintain the traditional values of the church.
One day, Pastor Smith’s daughter gave a ride to a colorful hitchhiker named Lonnie Frisbee, who shared with him his ministry of Jesus. Pastor Smith, at frst suspicious of Frisbee, eventually opened his heart and home to him and other hippies.

High-school student Greg Laurie was one of those that were inspired by Frisbee’s ministry. He ran away from his Junior Reserve Offcers’ Training Corps class to join a girl named Cathe, who introduced him to a Janis Joplin concert and Timothy Leary’s preaching of drugs for self-discovery. Greg was dismayed by the irresponsible behavior of some of the hippies and when Cathe’s sister got sick from a drug overdose, he and Cathe had a falling out.
Despite the initial confict, Cathe and Greg eventually found solace at Pastor Smith and Frisbee’s ministry, and this is where they reconciled. The ministry exploded in popularity, being seen as a “Jesus Revolution” or “Jesus freaks” and even sparking a Time magazine cover in 1971.
The Calvary Chapel movement that was started by Smith and Frisbee has become one of the most successful churches in the United States and the Jesus movement has become a powerful force in the spiritual lives of many people.
The success of the Calvary Chapel ministry shows the power of faith and understanding in bridging the generational divide. Pastor Smith, Frisbee, and Laurie were all able to put aside their differences and come together for the greater good of spreading love and hope to those in need. Their story is an inspiring example of how faith can bring people from different backgrounds and generations together and how we should be willing to put aside our differences to work towards a common goal.
The Jesus movement has had a lasting impact on the spiritual lives of many people, and the story of Pastor Smith, Frisbee, and Laurie is an example of how faith can bring us together and how we should always strive to put aside our differences to work towards a common goal. The success of the Calvary Chapel ministry is proof that faith can bring us together and that we should never forget the importance of understanding and compassion in our lives.
