Description
Throaty growl, tank-like build, and absurd horsepower with German engineering and style. Each engine was hand-built at AMG in Affalterbach, Germany, and autographed by one of their 50 Master Engine Builders. The 8-cylinder motor has a twin-screw Lysholm-type supercharger and is mated to a durable, tractor-like 5-speed automatic. In a road test review in 2003, Car and Driver lamented that no tires existed to handle the SL55’s theoretical 208 mph top speed. The retractable hard top is a praying-mantis-like sensation of engineering in motion.
When the car was introduced in late 2002, it was the fastest Mercedes ever produced up until that point.
German engineered. More power than you could ever consume. Comfort, speed, style, and durabilty all in one package. The top goes down but it looks and feels taut like a coupe. The Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG….there is no substitute!
