Nick Saban’s New $130,000 Sports Car Has All His Players Impressed

Alabama football coach Nick Saban is rolling around in a new $130,000 Mercedes, and it looks like his players are loving it.

Saban’s new 2015 Mercedes GT Edition 1 has earned the respect of the entire team — partly because it can go from 0 to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, and partly because the man behind the wheel is a 63-year-old, 5-foot-6 football genius.

Here are some photos uploaded by Crimson Tide players and fans:

It’s no surprise that Saban can afford nice things. His new contract with Alabama from 2014 pays him nearly seven million dollars a year. He is also part-owner of a Mercedes dealership in Hoover, a suburb of Birmingham. The new car is the same model that Saban was “driving” in this hilarious Mercedes commercial from earlier this year:

Old man is killing the game.

    I’m sure a couple Alabama players have Mercedes too. You know, that their distant uncle bought them.

    All that power and no clutch. What a waste.

    I’d take my E46 M3 6-speed any day

        Just one man’s opinion.

        Guarantee none of you clowns can drive a clutch.

        Any jackass, like the three of you above, can go to 60 in 3.7 seconds. Congrats – you’ve pressed the right pedal. Learn how to drive an actual sports car.

        Has nothing to do with NCs. We’re talking about preference in sports cars.

        You guys gotta relax

        It’s funny because you don’t know how much of a try hard dildo you actually are, and you think we are shitting on you because of driving preferences.

        Again, just one man’s opinion. Why you read into more than that is confounding.

        “Do less”. Whatever the hell that means

        Don’t ever compare this fuck to the late great speed demon of my childhood.

      First, sick dude one gives a fuck and second, while it’s still pretty nice and I’m sure fun to drive- E46 M3s are pretty old, like at least 10 years old. So quit bragging about your old fucking beamer that is worth less than 1/5 of Saban’s car

      I get the feeling that “Sabah” is the correct pronunciation of his name among the players

    I’m sure next to having his first born son, Saban has never been more proud then the day he “kilt the game.”

    Why can’t any of these guys hold their phones straight when taking a picture? Or spell.
