Purchased new in December 2002, this 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG benefits from sparing, adult ownership and professional care. Finished in red paint over red and gray two-tone upholstery, this stellar SL55 AMG remains in original and unmodified condition throughout and features air conditioning, power brakes, power steering and power windows, to name but a few of its many standard and optional features. Surpassed only by the larger-displacement SL63 AMG yet to come in 2009, the SL55 AMG is rightly regarded an important modern European performance legend by savvy collectors and marque enthusiasts today. Offered with single ownership and proper care from new, this SL55 AMG has 32,727 actual miles. Introduced in late 2002, the SL55 AMG reigned as the quickest factory-built Mercedes-Benz model ever, with power and performance delivered by a AMG 5.4-liter SOHC 5.4-liter V8 powerplant featuring aluminum block-and-head construction, 32-valve heads and an intercooled supercharger. With an electronically limited 155 mph top speed, the SL55 AMG's massive performance is harnessed by front and rear disc brakes, including vented and cross-drilled discs plus fully independent underpinnings. More than a worthy competitor to challengers from BMW and Porsche, the SL55 AMG sprints from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds, from 0 to 100 mph in 10.9 seconds, and covers the quarter-mile in 13 seconds flat at 110 mph - all with incredibly flat torque delivery.
