A Resource for SL55 Enthusiasts

I bought my first SL55, a silver 2003 model with 18K miles, in August of 2020. I fell instantly in love with the car, and figured I would never get rid of it. That was, until two years later, when this one of a kind yellow SL55 became available. After I won the auction my wife looked at it and said “it looks like a big banana” and the name stuck.

I am pretty particular about maintaining my vehicles in the best condition, especially this one, which I’m trying to maintain in a Hagarty’s “Fine” (2 to 2-) condition even though I do drive it. This will be reflected in the amount of money I am willing to spend to both maintain and correct defects with the car.

The six latest blog posts will show up below, but you can see all of the on the “blog” section of the site. I’ve also included a list of local and somewhat local events of interest.

If you are considering getting an SL55 AMG Mercedes I hope this will prove informative, and I still think they are one of the best deals in the current classic car market.
