3k-Mile 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe

Description

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG marked a bold return to the brand’s high-performance roots, reviving the spirit of the iconic 1950s 300SL “Gullwing.” Developed entirely in-house by Mercedes-AMG, it was the first model designed from the ground up by the performance division. The SLS AMG debuted at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show and entered production in 2010 for the 2011 model year.

Under its long hood sits a hand-built 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V8 producing a factory-rated 563 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transaxle. This setup launches the car from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds, with a top speed of 197 mph. Its lightweight aluminum spaceframe and near-perfect weight distribution contribute to its sharp handling and dynamic performance.

The most striking feature is its upward-opening gullwing doors, a direct homage to the 300SL. The SLS AMG blended retro styling with modern engineering, earning praise for both its aesthetics and driving experience.

This Le Mans Red 2011 SLS AMG Coupe has remained with its current owner since 2011 and now has 3k miles. The cabin features AMG sport seats upholstered in Designo Porcelain leather and complemented by aluminum trim.
