Vehicle Description
This 2008 Mercedes SL550 is just as stunning as the day it got off
the boat from Germany. And with it averaging less than 6,000 miles
annually, it's easy to see why. So now's your chance to grab a
six-figure car that's at a deep discount just for driving a few
breaking-in miles.
Buying a future classic has its advantages. This nearly-new SL
benefits from the latest paint practices where the
Mercedes-engineered clearcoat contains nano ceramic particles that
add both durability and shine. That's why the paint is so smooth
and has a deep metallic luster in the sunshine. Of course, it also
doesn't hurt that this scratch resistant paint came in Mars Red.
After all, if you're going to look like million bucks, you should
have an out-of-this-world vivid color. This SL has been
exceptionally well cared for with panels that still have their
precision German engineered fit, pristine 18-inch premium polished
alloy wheels, and doors that shut with the solid "THUNK" that comes
from buying a well-built Mercedes. But as much as we talk about
quality, the real reason for desirability is the style. It's a
sleek roadster for the sunny days, and the electronic folding
hardtop was so well engineered, that the design makes for an
outstandingly attractive coupe when you need to button up for the
weather.
The factory fresh feeling continues on the inside. The Sand Beige
leather interior is the perfect completing color for the rich
exterior red. So we're happy to see it has been as well cared for
as the exterior of the Benz. The SL has earned its reputation as a
luxury cruiser through a long list of desirable features. This
includes power windows, power locks, keyless entry, cruise control,
tilt/telescopic steering wheel, and an LED navigation infotainment
system with a stereo powerful enough to be heard at triple-digit
speeds with the top down. And speaking of top-down, the automatic
climate control and heated seats means you can stay comfortable
while open to the world any time of year. All of these features are
set into real wood panels that heighten the luxury experience. As
the driver, your seat's memory feature will remember to power
adjust to your ideal position. Plus, the buttons on the steering
wheel give you all the essential controls, including Bluetooth. But
there's another side to Mercedes amenities that are always a nice
bonus. This premium marque is known for engineering plenty of
safety into their cars, and this can be seen on items such as the
dual airbags, side airbags, anti-lock brakes, and the roll bar that
automatically pops up when danger is detected.
The SL550 is an upgraded model designation, and that's especially
felt in the engine bay. This is the original 382 horsepower
5.5-liter V8. It's a finely tuned engine that knows when you want
comfortable quiet cruising, but awakens a true V8 rumble when
you're having fun with the accelerator pedal. Another great upgrade
in the SL550 is 7G-Tronic transmission. It's a normal automatic
when you want leisurely cruising, but the paddle shifters will let
you tick through the gears faster than a manual when it's time for
some backroads fun. Add in other features such as the multi-link
independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, speed sensitive
power steering, and Bridgestone Potenza tires, and this is the
perfect car to bypass the country club for more weekend road trip
fun.
Complete with owner's manual, you know you should be paying quite a
bit more for this level of modern luxury. So don't let a great deal
pass you by. Call today!!!
