Please Wait For All Pictures To Load!

This fantastic SL550 was purchased in 2007 by a dear friend of mine with about three thousand miles on it (Mercedes-Benz factory rep car from new). Due to unforseen circumstances on her end, the car came in to me as a trade last month. I don't usually deal in late model sports and exotics, but my personal connection to the car from almost new and knowing the level of care that this car has always seen made it easy for me to help her out with a suitable replacement.

As you can tell from all of my photos, this car did not lack for care and attention throughout its life - it spent very few nights outside a very tight southeastern US garage and only then when it was out on a long road trip up and down the east coast. It was almost always dealer serviced apart from a couple sets of Michelins and a handful of oil changes. Most recently, it received new motor mounts and a full brake job at the Augusta, GA dealership - a complete file of service records detailing all work comes with the car.

The car wears all of its original paint save for a complete rear bumper respray when it was new and a complete front bumper repair and respray just weeks ago in one of my restoration shops - the bumper was removed, parking lot scrapes underneath (necessitating the repair) were correctly fixed and the bumper refitted.

You only see flash glare here and below, no damage, sorry for these glints of light.

All panel gaps are perfect as you would expect, the convertible top and electronic open/close trunk lid works perfectly as well.

You will note my PA dealer plate - yes, I reside in Richmond, VA but have an arrangement with a PA dealer friend of mine - as I do not need a dealer lot for the majority of my business I have a license with him instead. See all the way at the bottom for the complete explanation.

The inside of the trunk compartment is perfect, the protective shelf keeps excess load from impeding the closing of the trunk lid or convertible roof. The custom-made windshield sun shade is also included with the car.

You can see the flaps for the tonneau cover for when the top is open inside the deck lid.

As is becoming clear, this is not your average SL550!

There are no door dings or other imperfections in the bodywork, either. We just sent the car out for a full detailing inside and out and it cleans up like a one-year-old car.

Now, let's do a walk-around with the top down!

The real lines of this car emerge with its fully disappearing retractable hardtop.

The windscreen at the rear of the passenger compartment folds down manually but is a great help at speed if you believe a convertible should be driven top-down at all times (as long as weather permits)!

Close-up of the windscreen.

Putting the top back up for a moment, note the panoramic glass roof and the tinted back window, a great look.

From the inside with the sunshades pulled.

The beautiful view out if you just don't want the wind in your hair that day!

The original Bi-Xenon headlamps are chip, fade and fog free!

These have NOT been replaced!

All four original AMG 18" alloys are straight with nearly new Michelin Z rated rubber - I just perfected the balance on all four on a Hunter Road Force balancer. Note the new brake rotors and pads all the way around done last year along with a full system fluid flush.

The right front rim has a small scuff on it from a tire changer, but no curb rash.

Putting the top back down, let's take a serious look inside...

The car's desirable options include the extra wood trim, heated and cooled full power memory seats, BOSE audio with Mercedes-Benz COMAND Navigation and much more - a great set of creature comforts.

The seats are perfect on both sides, a testament to careful lady ownership!

In addition to heating and cooling, this switch on both seats allows for adjustable bolstering, lumbar support and massage!

The dashboard and center console are perfect with little to no fading to wood, leather and other materials.

Close-up here of the switchgear including the AMG Active Body Control Sport button, the ride height button, mirror controls, convertible top control, climate control and the Keyless Start button on the shifter - you can but do not have to put the key in the ignition slot - just leave it in your pocket.

Navigation and climate control on!

In the center armrest, the latest Mercedes Bluetooth "puck" compatible with all current Android and iPhones, this integrates with the COMAND system.

The steering wheel also has paddle shifters, controls for audio, phone and the display on the instruments.

Present mileage as of today, mileage may go up slightly during the listing at my discretion.

Close-up of the steering wheel, it's immaculate.

Just lovely in one side and out the other!

The original door jamb stickers are clearly all present!

This factory CD changer is in the cubby behind the driver's seat.

The owners manual (and the cover for the Bluetooth adapter in the armrest!) are behind the passenger's seat.

The entire original owners packet is with the car, complete with the original...

Window Sticker!

$109,185 new!

Both original keys just got new batteries.

This car also comes with this rare factory accessory fitted luggage bag that fits over the "hump" and uses the retracting straps in the rear panel. Really a neat piece!

Driver's door panel is just as nice as the passenger's side!

The overhead console has the Homelink garage door opener in the electrochromatic rear view mirror, dome lamps and the microphone for the Bluetooth phone.

Under the hood, the immaculate engine compartment with the gorgeous 5.5 litre V8 engine.

Both starting and main batteries were also replaced recently, genuine MB, of course.

Truly a well-serviced car!

Race Recap: 2015 Hungarian Grand Prix is Magyar for 'What a race!'

Mon, Jul 27 2015

Every driver on the Formula 1 grid dreams of taking home the silverware, but only one driver each year can do it. Barring disaster in 2015 it looks like it's going to be Lewis Hamilton. The Brit has been so dominating at the front of the grid on Saturday, we can't see how he'll miss out on winning the second annual FIA Pole Position Trophy. That's the accolade introduced last season in another manufactured attempt to give drivers something to work for on Saturday, since the FIA felt leading into the first corner didn't have the pull it used to. Hamilton took his ninth pole of the season in Hungary for Mercedes-AMG Petronas with a crushing lap that put him almost six tenths ahead of his teammate Nico Rosberg in second. All Hamilton needs is one more spot at the top of the grid this season, and he's the Pole Position trophy winner. Thrilling stuff. Behind Rosberg the gaps stayed smaller, Sebastian Vettel in the Ferrari a little more than a tenth behind Rosberg, Daniel Ricciardo in the Infiniti Red Bull Racing less than four one-hundredths behind Vettel. We feel almost as vexed watching Kimi Raikkonen as he feels driving – he's finally got a good Ferrari, now he can't get a good weekend. The front wing broke on his car in Free Practice 1, then a water leak in Free Practice 3 robbed him of setup time on the soft tire. He lines up in fifth about two tenths behind Ricciardo. The slow, tight Hungaroring didn't agree with the Williams chassis, Valtteri Bottas the first of the Grove team drivers in sixth, his teammate Felipe Massa two places back. Between them is Daniil Kvyat in the second Red Bull in seventh. Teenager Max Verstappen put in a good showing in the Toro Rosso to grab ninth, while Romain Grosjean in a wriggling, squishy, sliding Lotus classified his appearance in Q3 at all as "a miracle." As for the race that followed, we don't expect to see another like it for a long time Â– it was the real thrilling stuff, one shock after another. The drama began after the first parade lap, when Felipe Massa lined up out of position and the start was aborted. The drivers did another parade lap, then lined up with everyone in place. Mercedes got swamped as soon as the lights went out. Vettel ran around both of them and led the race into the first turn, Raikkonen had come from fifth to third by Turn 1, then got the inside line on Rosberg through Turn 2 to take second place.
