The car was originally delivered to Euro Motorcars, Inc. of Bethesda, Maryland, and it was acquired by the current owner in 2007.
The car is finished in Black (040U) and features a power-retractable hardtop with a panoramic roof, bi-xenon headlights with washers, fog lamps, front fender vents, and dual exhaust outlets.
AMG-branded 18″ wheels are mounted with 255/40 front and 285/35 rear Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 tires that show date codes from 2018. The car rides on an Active Body Control (ABC) suspension, and stopping power is provided by disc brakes with Mercedes-Benz-branded front calipers over cross-drilled rotors. Records indicate that the ABC struts were replaced in March 2020.
The cabin features power-adjustable heated seats upholstered in black leather along with burled walnut veneers on the dash, center console, steering wheel, shifter, and door panels. Amenities include push-button start, automatic climate control, Bose audio with a CD changer, and COMAND with navigation.
The multifunction steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline, inset monochrome LCD screens, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer indicates 89k miles.
The 5.0-liter M113 V8 was factory rated at 302 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque. An oil change was performed in September 2020.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission.
