Used 2009 Mercedes Benz SL 550

When it came time to refresh the SL for 2009, Mercedes set out to make the car more aggressive and striking. The new face's swept-back headlights and wide-mouth grille successfully convey a more sporting intent. Judging by the impressed looks on the faces of jaded bystanders along the boulevards of your hometown, Mercedes should be able to declare its mission accomplished. This AMG model gained an array of new or improved standard features, as well as significant upgrades to the steering and the Active Body Control system. A sporty new three-spoke steering wheel is the most dramatic change made to the SL’s interior. The only other changes of note are the mildly revised instrument cluster, a more logical COMAND infotainment system, and the newly available three-speed Airscarf system that blows warm air onto your neck. The car's ability to be both a smooth-riding boulevard cruiser and back-road-storming sports car is truly impressive. Plus, no other convertible in this premium price range offers the versatility of the quick-stowing hardtop (with this car featuring the upgraded glass panoramic sunroof). To sum it up – this Benz sports a nifty retractable hardtop, thrilling performance, solid handling, compliant adjustable ride, convertible-friendly seats, and spacious interior.
