The new Mercedes-AMG SL55 4Matic+ reasserts its sporty status.

An Icon Reborn

WHEN IT COMES to racing lineage and pedigree, few boast as rich and fervent a history as the Mercedes-AMG SL. It was first released as the groundbreaking Mercedes-Benz 300 SL race car in 1952, beating Porsche's 911 by a good 11 years. But while the original was lauded for being a trailblazer, subsequent iterations of the Mercedes-AMG SL were gradually watered down over the years, taking on a more languid demeanour that better resembled a grand tourer than a spirited sports car.

Well, the Mercedes-AMG SL55 4Matic+ is looking to rewrite the book. The car seeks to restore the model back to its lofty raison d'etreSL, after all, comes from 'sport-leicht' ('sporty' and 'light'). That the reboot has been undertaken by the company's high-performance sub-brand is good indication that more bite and zeal are in store.

Best of the Best - Wine

Lounging in a Maldivian resort, wine-tasting in Bordeaux, putting a sports car through its paces at Sonoma Raceway, curating the best watches from Geneva, perusing the top menswear accoutrements in Milan, testing cutting-edge yachts in Monaco. The life of a Robb Report editor may sound glamorous, but-actually, we can't argue there. Even so, separating the wheat from the chaff is no small task in the luxury realm, since even the chaff can be mighty impressive. In our 36th annual Best of the Best issue, we again offer our assessment of the past year's most exemplary products, places and experiences. And yes, edition number 37 is already underway.
