The Appeal

The R230-generation SL55 AMG sits at the sharp end of Mercedes-Benz's grand touring roadster range. AMG's hand-built, supercharged 5.5-litre V8 produces 493 HP, paired with the SpeedShift 5-speed automatic transmission and Active Body Control suspension. Originally retailing at $151,270 in the United States, equivalent to approximately €200,150 when similarly specified in the Netherlands, it was generously equipped from the factory.

This 2006 example is finished in Tellurium Silver Metallic over AMG Berry Red leather, complemented by the Designo Alcantara Anthracite roof liner. It features the glass sunroof hardtop and AMG Styling Package. Inside, it is fitted with active ventilated front seats with multi-contour adjustment and massage function, Keyless-Go, Parktronic, Bi-Xenon headlamps, and the COMAND DVD navigation system paired with a Bose premium surround sound system.

Originally supplied to the US market, this SL55 AMG has since been imported to the Netherlands with EU customs duties and VAT paid. It is accompanied by its original window sticker and Mercedes-Benz datacard, documenting its factory specification. The seller can assist with worldwide transport and shipping.
