Having owned many versions of Porsche 911, a BMW M3, a 740i and a 850 and both a Ferrari Testarossa and a 550 Maranello I have to admit this is the top of my list in overall satisfaction.It has more raw power than even the 550, and yet it is controlled by the latest technology that gives you the opportunity to snarl or purr as you navigate all that torque and horse power. Great design and all year convertible to hard top options. See yah flying down the highway or eating up those curves on roads like Highway 1 in California. Thank you Mercedes!

SL55 has it all. There is not another car out there with the looks, performance, luxury, and drop top for less than 3 times the cost. Finest car I have ever owned. Would not trade for any Ferrari.

The SL55AMG is by far the best car in the world. It has then hard top convertible and all the specifcations you can want. The only poor thing is that you can't get in a the charcoal colour. The interior is really comfortable and it has a massage system which is really relaxing.

MY 2004 SL500 IS A WONDERFUL AUTOMOBILE BUT PRICED 30% HIGH. THIS IS NUMBER 7 SINCE 2000 AND I'VE LOST MONEY ON ALL 7. HOW ABOUT GETTING A LITTLE HELP FROM THE DEALER.
