2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG

Description

This 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG is a car that makes no compromises. You have a sleek exterior with a power-folding hardtop; a leather-lined interior with every feature you want; and a handcrafted supercharged V8. It's a total package that proves exactly why the best luxury and performance machines always stay in demand.

A high-performance AMG car done in silver just seems right. After all, silver was Germany's official racing color. The Pewter Metallic shows all the right signs of being the factory application on a car that has averaged only about 3,100 miles annually. There's even a car cover that has helped protect this Benz. So the beautiful luster this application gives off today is also a reminder of the respect and quality that is at the true heart of a Mercedes. Quad exhaust tips and accents inspired by the 300SL gullwing show off more of this car's sporty style. And the overall build quality has a first-class appearance with tight German-engineered panel tolerances. So the whole exterior reinforces both the premium and power elements. It all comes together perfectly on the 18-inch alloys. They have a classic elegance like wire wheels, but these newer AMG units also fit terrific sport tires.

The black and dark gray leather interior is the perfect complementing color combo to the exterior, and at the same time, its darker style immediately draws attention to the walnut wood on the center console. 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 brakes, and the roll bar that automatically pops up when danger is detected. There are other amenities such as power windows, power steering, power locks, keyless entry, cruise control, and an infotainment system with navigation and a premium stereo. The special AMG bucket seats are heated, and they even have the optional massage feature. So you may discover that the most comfortable seat in your house is the one in the garage! The electronic folding roof was one of the best inventions Mercedes ever put in the SL. It gives you the security and style of a coupe when you want, and with the electronic folding roof stowed, there's still room in the trunk for your weekend bags. And no matter if the sunshine is coming through the optional glass moonroof, or you have the full top down, the dual-zone automatic A/C climate control will make sure you have an individual sense of cool.

This is a true AMG car, and so the 5.5-liter V8 is a hand-crafted powerhouse built by a professional technician (they even leave their personal stamp right on top of the motor to prove it!) They make a fortified powerhouse that includes forged aluminum pistons, heavy-duty bearings, double valve springs, a larger intake, and an upgraded cam. So it's the perfect place to put a supercharger on top. The result is a 490+ horsepower drop-top rocket. The five-speed transmission offers paddle shifts for total control, or you can just let the automatic do it for you with easy overdrive comfort. AMG specially tunes the fully independent suspension for performance, but this also never loses the luxurious Mercedes feel. Add in power steering, four-wheel power disc brakes, and Continental performance tires, and you'll instantly be reminded of why a true AMG car is always worth the extra investment.

This is the one vehicle that's equal parts power and prestige. So don't miss this low-mileage silver bullet. Call today!!!
