2003 Mercedes-benz Sl-class Sl55 Amg Roadster - Only 41k Miles on 2040-cars
Sarasota, Florida, United States
For more pictures email at: brigettebppancoast@ukfamilies.com . This car is near perfect with an unblemished history. Easily one of the very nicest SL55's in the country.
This SL55 was built at the separate Mercedes-Benz AMG facility where every aspect of the car was hand assembled and
upgraded over the standard SL500 production car. Including the Alcantara suede headliner, hand stitched leather
dash, door panels, center console and instrument panel.
The motor itself was assembled by one master engine builder who signed a plate which was affixed to the top of the
supercharger. Virtually every major component on this car is vastly superior to the standard product SL500
including the massive 4 piston brake calipers, high performance suspension, AMG driveline upgrades and more.
The motor is a 5.5 liter Supercharged V8 which produces 493 bhp and 516 ft/lbs of torque. It is a beast wrapped in
velvet! Massive Supercar performance with amazing refinements and luxury that you would expect from the
Mercedes-Benz AMG specialty car build site.
Which would you rather own, a replica clone or some re-creation that was cobbled together from inferior parts or a
genuine AMG which is the result of hundreds of millions of dollars in development? The Mercedes-Benz AMG SL55's
were very limited in production as compared with the standard SL500 and will be sought after in the coming years as
a collectible, especially one as well equipped as this, with these few miles and in near perfect condition as this
car.
This car comes with a Platinum Warranty Included with Zero Deductible.. just sign your name. (This is no ordinary
warranty.) This warranty covers everything except wearables (tires, brakes). It will be transferred to the next
owner.
The warranty is good at any Mercedes-Benz dealership in the U.S. or any reputable independent repair shop. It is
in place until either the expiration date of 11/14/2016 or 81,728 miles.. which ever comes first.
I am the second owner of the car, this car has ALWAYS been garaged and babied in Sarasota, Florida it's entire
life. Always serviced and kept in perfect order.. no exception.
All services have been kept up to date and even the smallest issue was repaired/replaced immediately.
Only two very finicky owners. No paint work of any kind. No accidents or any damage ever. Never smoked in.
It has always been kept detailed in show condition at all times it's entire life.
This car is absolutely a gem.. Brand new tires just put on less than 50 miles ago . The wheels are 20" Lorinser
LM5 2 piece chromes. None of the wheels have any scrapes or marks at all.
No suspension alteration.. everything else on the car is factory. Options include: Keyless Go, Parktronic,
Disctronic, Panorama glass roof (with interior shade), Active Ventilated seats, Bi-Xenon Headlamps, Tire-Pressure
Monitoring System. Original sticker of $125,745.
I have not seen many SL55's come with the Panorama glass roof and it makes a very striking difference with the
contrast from the silver exterior. It makes the car stand out from all the rest and is commented on all the time,
as well as the wheels. The wheels were $2,500 each when bought new and they are in near perfect condition.
When you consider the warranty still in place, the high end wheels, panorama roof and all the other very desirable
option's this car has it is in a class all to it's own over other SL55's available for sale. The warranty alone
should be worth thousands for the peace of mind and understanding that NOTHING has ever been let go because of
cost. Even the tiniest issue has been instantly handled since day one with this car.
This is truly an exceptional car in every way. It is as close to PERFECT as you can get!
Please contact me with any questions you may have.

These are the cars with the best and worst depreciation after 5 years
Thu, Nov 19 2020The average new vehicle sold in America loses nearly half of its initial value after five years of ownership. No surprise there; we all expect that shiny new car to start depreciating as soon as we drive it off the lot. But some vehicles lose value a lot faster than others. According to data provided by iSeeCars.com, trucks and truck-based sport utility vehicles generally hold their value better than other vehicle types, with the Jeep Wrangler — in both four-door Unlimited and standard two-door styles — and Toyota Tacoma sitting at the head of the pack. The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited's average five-year depreciation of 30.9% equals a loss in value of $12,168. That makes Jeep's four-door off-roader the best overall pick for buyers looking to minimize depreciation. The Toyota Tacoma's 32.4% loss in initial value means it loses just $10,496. The smaller dollar amount — the least amount of money lost after five years — indicates that Tacoma buyers pay less than Wrangler Unlimited buyers, on average, when they initially buy the vehicle. The standard two-door Jeep Wrangler is third on the list, depreciating 32.8% after five years and losing $10,824. Click here for a full list of the top 10 vehicles with the least depreciation over five years. On the other side of the depreciation coin, luxury sedans tend to plummet in value at a much faster rate than other vehicle types. The BMW 7 Series leads the losers with a 72.6% drop in value after five years, which equals an alarming $73,686. BMW's slightly smaller 5 Series is next, depreciating 70.1%, or $47,038, over the same period. Number three on the biggest losers list is the Nissan Leaf, the only electric vehicle to appear in the bottom 10. The electric hatchback matches the 5 Series with a 70.1% drop in value, but since it's a much cheaper vehicle, that percentage equals a much smaller $23,470 loss.

SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
Mercedes giving SL a nose job
Tue, Dec 9 2014Mercedes tends to keep its SL roadster around longer than most models. The previous fifth-generation machine was launched in 2001, underwent a facelift in 2009 and stuck around until 2012. That's when the current model was introduced, and before it's replaced, Benz is expected to roll out another facelifted version. And that seems to be exactly what we're looking at here. Expected to arrive sometime in 2016 as a 2017 model, the updated SL will likely feature revised styling front and rear (along with updated interior equipment). This prototype appears to be wearing headlights from the new S-Class Coupe, which don't fit precisely, but then Daimler still has a couple of years to get everything just right.
