2016 Mercedes-Benz SL 2dr Roadster SL 550

LIMITED EDITION- >>>>>> 1 of only 417 built!!!!

Mercedes-Benz celebrates the 60th anniversary of a memorable motor racing success with an extraordinary special model of the SL Roadster. Its name commemorates the unexpected victory of a 300 SL in the production sports cars class at the 1955 "Mille Miglia", one of the world's most challenging long-distance races. What's more: the SL Special Edition "Mille Miglia 417" provides a special experience of the unique symbiosis of maximum comfort and motor racing spirit that traditionally characterizes every SL. The Special Edition adds a distinctive note, among other things, with red exterior highlights and fine materials in the exclusively appointed interior. 

The Mercedes-Benz SL Roadster is more than an icon. Passion shapes its character and its charisma – in the past and today. Legendary vehicles and their stories dominate the model history. One of them is told by the SL that started the famous "Mille Miglia" in 1955 with race number 417 at 4:17 am. After 11 hours, 29 minutes and 21 seconds it had completed the race distance of 1597 kilometres on public roads from Brescia to Rome and back. Driven by the American private driver John Fitch with assistance from his co-driver Kurt Gessl, it crossed the finish line to great acclaim in fifth place of the overall standings and as the winner of the production sports cars, leaving numerous racing prototypes behind. Production 300 SL cars also took second and third place in this class. 

After 60 years the new SL Special Edition "Mille Miglia 417" now expresses the laudatory proclamation about this victory and the car with race number 417. For this reason Mercedes-Benz also integrated the legendary number "417" into the badge of this special model as a reminder – a symbol for the passion that helps shape the charisma of every SL Roadster. 

Performance, pronounced sportiness and innovative roadster comfort are hallmark fundamental features that also distinguish the Special Edition "Mille Miglia 417". The eight-cylinder engine in the SL550 with 429 hp enables top sporting performance. The standard ESP® Curve Dynamic Assist and an adaptive adjustable damping system deliver sporty lateral dynamics while offering outstanding comfort at the same time. 

The design of the Mille Miglia Edition meets high aesthetic standards and underscores its spirit with stylish red highlights. Red is the color of the lip on the front spoiler, and a red trim strip on the rear spoiler contrasts with the matte carbon. Red brake callipers gleam through the spokes of the black AMG Performance wheels, which sport subtle red surrounds and have diameters of 19 inches at the front and 20 inches at the rear. 

The Special Edition "Mille Miglia 417" comes standard with a designo night black magno matte paint finish. The designo paintwork lends the vehicle an individual and exclusive character. 

Mercedes-Benz has further upgraded the luxurious yet sporty interior with fine materials and meticulous master craftsmanship. The AMG Line seats as well as the black center console with contrasting inlays and red edging are eye-catching features. The leather headrests feature an embossed carbon structure and an embroidered "SL Mille Miglia" label. Red edging also outlines the black door center panels with red armrests and red seatbelts also adorn the interior. The easy-to-grip steering wheel is wrapped in red and black nappa leather with sporty embossed carbon structure which bolsters the sporty ambience. The trim elements have a matte carbon finish. The black floor mats with red edging sport an embroidered "1000 Miglia" label.

Here at Iconic Coach, our expert detailers and installers provide an elevated experience for our clients by offering Paint Protection Services which include Ceramic Coating and Paint Protection Film (PPF).  

 PPF preserves the vehicle's youth by effectively repelling debris, rocks, sand, and other impacts that cause incidental chips, scratches, and abrasions. Our Suntek films are even self-healing which means when you leave your car in the warm sun or pour warm water over the PPF surface you’ll see the film heal itself from most scratches or abrasions.  Our Suntek certified installers are happy to demonstrate this effect in person or through video call. Each Suntek PPF order comes with a 10-year limited warranty which protects against cracking, bubbling or yellowing. 

Ceramic Coating is a liquid polymer that is applied by hand to the exterior of a vehicle. The coating chemically bonds with the vehicle's factory clear coat or paint creating a Hydrophobic layer of strong protection from the harsh suns UV rays that will deteriorate a vehicles clear coat and cause the color to fade. Essentially a hard shell, a ceramic coating will prevent water stains, road grime, bird droppings, and other substances from reaching and harming the paint. With a quick rinse, they’ll simply slide right off.  No need to polish or wax for years as the surface of a ceramic coated vehicle will remain glossy and smooth.
