You guys obviously missed the part about the Brabus engine putting out 585 HP....the original owner put $225,000 into the car and it now has 4,000 miles. I don't think you'll find too many on cars.com for $25,000.

I also really like the AMG cars. I was looking at a 03 CL55 last week that was a salvage. I was shocked to find that the front fenders were PLASTIC! I know it sure wasn't to save weight.
From what I have read, the 02 SLs were the last of the handbuilt cars. The engine in this car is a work of art. I guess I'm getting old, because I think this is one of the most beautiful convertibles ever built.

Sorry, have to say Ferrari 360. Most reliable affordable Ferrari ever built. Unless you like them old school baby Testarossa side grills on a 348.

I sat next to the CEO of this company on a plane last week:

Supposedly a blast to drive... It's got a Z06 engine in a far lighter chassis.

But if you love it and want it, I hope you buy it low and drive it happily.
Happy Motoring.
