For Sale: 2004 Mercedes-Benz SL55 in Memphis, Indiana

This 2004 Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG is for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. Though most people do not realize the Mercedes Benz company's origins are rotted in the early racing scene. One of probably the most notorious stories was in 1934 Alfred Neubauer, head engineer at the time, directed his crew to grind off all the paint on their factory backed race cars. It had nothing to do with looks but about weight. The company has come a long way since 34 with their biggest priorities being luxury and safety. This 2004 has both but those three little letters behind it is what makes this droptop so special. This 04 has a clean CARFAX and is ready to hit the open road as is. Under the hood is the hand-built Supercharged 5.4 LTR V8 that is putting out just shy of 500 ponies. Capable of turning out quarter miles times in the high 12's this is one luxury hotrod that is as fast as it is beautiful. Of course, with that kind of speed brakes are not your average setup. The 14.2-inch rotors on the front and 13's in the rear are drilled and vented to stay cool under pressure. The eight piston calipers increase the clamping force tremendously and bringing this droptop down to a halt in very respectable distances. Hit the button and watch as the AMG becomes a transformer, the trunk kicks up as the steel roof is lowered away. Hit the other button and watch as the hideaway roll bar comes up. The interior is full of fun stuff with the bucket seats being covered in some of the nicest leather you have ever seen. If you have been wanting to get one of the nicest fastest droptop's to ever hit the streets but can't justify the 6 figure selling prices on newer ones. This well-maintained example could be the right way to go. Options on this 2004 Mercedes Benz Sl55 AMG include, AC, AM/FM/CD, Power Convertible Top, Power Windows, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Cruise Control, Tilt Steering, Leather Interior, and Aluminum Alloy Wheels wrapped in Radial Tires.
