This 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG is powered by a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission, and it is finished in black over Anthracite Exclusive leather. Equipment includes a power-retractable hardtop, 19″ two-piece wheels, bi-xenon headlights, Parktronic, Keyless-Go, Distronic cruise control, heated and ventilated multi-contour seats, COMAND infotainment with navigation, and a Bose sound system.
The exterior is finished in black (040U) and features a power-retractable hardtop with a glass roof. Additional equipment includes bi-xenon headlights, fog lights, and the AMG Styling Package, which added revised front and rear valances, side skirts, and quadruple exhaust outlets. “Moderate” damage to the front and rear of the car is noted on the Carfax report in October 2013, although no further details are provided. A hydraulic cylinder for the retractable hardtop was reportedly replaced in 2021.
The 19″ two-piece alloy wheels feature gray-painted faces and wear 255/35 front and 285/30 rear Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tires showing 2016, 2017, and 2019 date codes. The car is equipped with auto-leveling Active Body Control (ABC) suspension, electronic stability control, Automatic Slip Control (ASR), and an AMG High Performance Braking System with cross-drilled rotors. The ABC pump and hydraulic fluid were reportedly changed in 2020, while the accumulators are said to have been replaced in 2021.
The cabin features Anthracite Exclusive leather (581) on the heated and ventilated multi-contour seats, black leather on the upper dashboard and door handles, and black ash wood trim. Additional appointments include an Alcantara headliner, dual-zone automatic climate control, Distronic cruise control, a wind deflector, Parktronic, Keyless-GO, COMAND infotainment with navigation, and a factory stereo connected to a CD changer and a Bose sound system.
The leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel frames a 220-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 65k miles.
The twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter M275 V12 was factory rated at 604 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque when new, which is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission. The engine mounts and a transmission mount were reportedly changed in 2018, and service since 2020 is said to have included replacement of the battery, radiator, coolant hoses, water pump, ignition coil assemblies, spark plugs, and ignition coil module.
