INTRODUCTION: Only 11,625 actual miles, at the time of this listing
it is the lowest mile example available anywhere! Combining
timeless styling, world class luxury, and exhilarating performance,
the SL550 remains one of the finest grand touring roadsters ever
built. This is a unique opportunity to own a virtually
showroom-fresh example of Mercedes-Benz's iconic flagship
convertible.
EXTERIOR: The exterior is finished in beautiful Iridium Silver
metallic with a deep, glossy shine that beautifully highlights the
SL550's sleek, timeless design. It is further enhanced by Mercedes'
advanced LED headlights, distinctive LED taillights, and soft close
doors that gently pull themselves shut with a touch of luxury. One
of its most desirable features is the power retractable panoramic
hardtop, allowing you to enjoy the security and comfort of a coupe
or the open air experience of a roadster at the touch of a button.
It sits confidently on factory 19-inch AMG wheels that add a
sporty, performance inspired stance while complementing the car's
luxury character.
INTERIOR: It is ultra luxurious, finished in rich Bengal Red Nappa
leather accented by beautiful polished Ash wood trim. The
handcrafted environment feels every bit as premium as its price tag
suggests. The multi function power seats are loaded with features
including heating, ventilation, memory settings, massage and active
bolstering for outstanding comfort and support. Mercedes' AIRSCARF
system gently blows warm air around your neck and shoulders,
extending top down driving enjoyment well beyond the summer months.
Additional features include dual-zone climate control, refrigerated
glovebox, navigation, Bluetooth, a premium audio system, push
button start, and a power tilt-and-telescoping steering column.
This interior remains in exceptional condition, practically
new!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Pop the hood and you're greeted by a 4.7-liter
twin-turbocharged V8 pumping out an impressive 449 horsepower and a
massive 516 lb-ft of torque! This sophisticated powerhouse features
direct fuel injection, dual overhead cams, variable valve timing,
twin turbos, and intercooling technology, delivering effortless
performance with instant acceleration at any speed. Despite its
luxury pedigree, this SL550 is capable of sports car performance
while maintaining the refinement expected from a world class grand
tourer. The engine compartment is absolutely mint. Factory original
components, covers, decals, and finishes are beautifully
preserved.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is clean, well finished, and features a power
operated trunk lid for added convenience. It is neatly carpeted and
offers impressive storage space for a luxury roadster. The
retractable hardtop storage system is cleverly integrated, and the
entire compartment remains in excellent condition.
UNDERSIDE: It has a very sophisticated factory chassis featuring
Mercedes' Driver Control adaptive suspension system that
automatically adjusts ride quality and handling characteristics.
Speed sensitive electric power steering provides excellent road
feel and effortless cruising. The 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic
transmission provides nine forward gears for quick acceleration and
relaxed highway cruising. It also has high performance four wheel
power disc brakes featuring large ventilated rotors, ABS, Brake
Assist, and Electronic Stability Control. The fully independent
multi link suspension, adaptive ride control, limited-slip
differential, and stainless exhaust system all work together to
provide the exceptional blend of comfort, handling, and performance
that made the SL one of the world's premier luxury roadsters.
