After driving an 06 SL55 AMG I traded my fully optioned and modified 04 CLK55 AMG for this fully optioned car with the 030 Performance Package. I had it less than a month when it was totaled on 12/31/08. I am so impressed by this car I bought an 07 SL55 AMG with the 030 and all options after the insurance claims were settled. For comparison I tested the 09 Shelby GT500KR, 09 Chev Corvette Z06, 07 BMW 650i convt, 08 BMW 550 Sport and an 08 SL550 Sport. I even considered an 08 CLK63 Black Series. Personally, I think the SLs are great cars that can do everything very well. Although it is not as nimble as my previous 03 BMW M5 and 02 M3 its still my 1st choice. It's stablemate is a great 05 E55.

Love the car but have less then 10K miles and have changed front tires (bulging), and two wheel rims.

This is a big heavy 2 seater that is a true GT car. I am a former Porsche mechanic and have owned 35 plus sports cars of all makes. The AMG 63 is a big powerful GT that loves the open road. I do most of my own maintenance which probably help keep costs down, however the car is very straight forward to work on, like all Mercedes Benz.

Terrific automobile. Only dissapointment is the technology used in the navigation system. It is at lease two generations behind Lexus.
I expect better

If you returned to your car in the hardware store's parking lot to find the center rear stop light lens from the trunk lid laying on the ground, you'd think a vandal tried to pop it to mess with the door lock. Right? Nope, they just fall off, and the Dealer has seen lots like that. Now the little flap wing that comes out from the left front trunk lid edge when the retractable hardtop is put down just droops and messes up the top raising and lowering cycles. You have to press it back into position to get top function.
