Vehicle Description
This Mercedes SL550 is just as stunning as the day it got off the
boat from Germany. And with only 54,053 miles on the odometer, it's
easy to see why. So now's your chance to grab a six-figure car
that's at a very deep discount.
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 black. It's
a shade that grabs attention like a slick convertible should, but
this one has deeper and more mature tones. This SL has been
exceptionally well cared for with panels that still have their
precision German engineered fit, pristine 18-inch premium 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 stone
pattern tan Nappa 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, automatic climate
control, and an LED navigation infotainment system with a stereo
powerful enough to be heard at triple-digit speeds with the top
down. All of this is set into real wood panels that heighten the
luxury experience. 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, the anti-lock disc
brakes, and the roll bar that automatically pops up when danger is
detected. And while you likely want this SL because you enjoy
top-down fun, you can even enjoy a terrific view of the outdoors
with the hardtop in place thanks to the panoramic glass roof.
The SL550 had a nice upgrade in the engine bay. The 382 horsepower
5.5-liter V8 gives you the freedom to choose to keep up with
traffic, or easily leave all of them behind. 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 slap shifter will let you tick through the gears
faster than a manual when it's time for some windy-road fun. Add in
other features such as the multi-link independent suspension,
four-wheel disc brakes, speed sensitive power steering, and
Michelin Pilot Sport tires, and this is the perfect car to bypass
the country club for more weekend road trip fun.
With a six-figure retail asking price when new, Mercedes pulled out
all the stops when designing this SL. Then you realize that by
waiting a few years you can save big money without any sacrifice.
