The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class models are stately, well-constructed two-seat roadsters, created in small volumes for customers with exclusive tastes.
The SL-Class is comprised of four models: the SL550, the SL600, the all-new SL63 AMG and the SL65 AMG. The SL550 is powered by a 382-hp 5.5-liter V8, mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission. The SL600 is outfitted with a 510-hp 5.5-liter bi-turbo V12, while the SL65's larger 6.0-liter bi-turbo V12 generates an immense 604 horsepower; both engines are paired with a five-speed automatic transmission with shift paddles. The SL63 AMG boasts a hand-built 518-hp 6.3-liter V8, as well as a new seven-speed MCT (multi-clutch technology) transmission not found in any other Mercedes model. All SL-Class models are equipped with a power retractable hardtop, adaptive suspension with Active Body Control (ABC), heated leather seats, automatic climate control, satellite radio and a voice-activated navigation system. Standard safety features include four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, an electronic stability program (ESP) with traction control, front, side and driver knee airbags, and an automatically deployable rollover bar.
For 2009, the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class receives a facelift, with all models now sporting more aggressive AMG body styling, redesigned Bi-Xenon headlamps with Active Curve Illumination, and a new multimedia interface with DVD, iPod and Bluetooth capabilities. An all-new SL63 AMG model, with unique styling and technologies, replaces the previous year's SL55 AMG.

Resale Value for the 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL550
When considering the purchase of a 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL550, it's important to keep in mind what the eventual resale value will be. This can be ascertained from looking at the selling price of prior year versions of the 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL550, if it's not a brand new model. Keep in mind that resale value is dependent on the condition of the automobile when it is sold, as well as optional equipment and the total number of miles accumulated.
