This 2006 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG RENNtech was originally sold by Mercedes-Benz of Houston, Texas where it remained with the first owner under dealer service through 2024. It was then acquired by the selling dealer with 30k original miles noted. The car is finished in designo Graphite (041) over designo Graphite Green (X14) Leather, and is powered by a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. Factory equipment includes a body-color retractable hardtop, Parktronic, Distronic, heated multi-contour front seats, upgraded COMAND with backup camera, bi-xenon headlamps, and optional 2-piece 19” staggered AMG Cromodora wheels. Additionally this example benefits from a custom stereo and a complete RENNtech R2 performance package consisting of an ECU upgrade, crankshaft pulley, RENNtech headers, RENNTech intercooler and pump, and a RENNtech airbox. The included Carfax report shows 50 service history records, the majority of which were recorded with the original selling dealer. Recent services have resulted in a new ABC pump, two new ABC front struts, and a new rear axle to repair a leaking boot. This SL55 AMG is offered by the selling dealer with manufacturer’s literature, two fob keys, a clean Carfax report, a VMI report, and a clean Texas title.

I love the designo leather in this! And of course the RENNtech R2 package doesn't hurt.

@LT77. What it most likely was is a standard "body service" recommended at that miles/ time period. This includes greasing hinges, lubing seals etc. You can see it was a recommended service that the customer ended up doing. I am not sure on the top. Everything works as it should. I will try to get some pictures up!
Can you elaborate on the body repairs noted in seevice records from 2023. Also, has the retractable roof system has been serviced / overhauled or stilm with original parts from 2006? Can you provide images of the hydraulic pumps for roof system located underneath the bonnet.
@GenevaMotorCars gotcha, gotcha! I agree wrt this being a great upgrade. I wish I had thought of that when I owned mine. I think at the time I didn’t know you could do it because I didn’t want my car cut into or any mods that altered it from the original state.
@pilotbrother2003. It was not on the car when new but it is a OEM unit. In other words it was made by Mercedes and is not an aftermarket product. It was retrofitted to fit this 2006. It is a great upgrade to have!
@GenevaMotorCars to clarify, you're saying the COMMAND module that's shown with the car is OEM? That looks like the OEM module that was standard from 2009 and beyond. I previously owned a 2006 SL65 and my COMMAND module was not like that. It's a very nice upgrade for sure, but I'm not aware that they installed this type in MY06.

@abutterer. The command module is OEM. The backup camera is aftermarket that was integrated with the OEM Command Unit. It does have Bluetooth audio
@zachmac. Air bladders all work as they should. Everything works as it should.
@GenevaMotorCars are all the seat bladders and functions working? Anything not working?
Are you able to comment anymore on the updated COMMAND module? From a newer Mercedes or aftermarket? Did it just add the camera or was there anything else it added? Bluetooth for audio?

@zacmac. Yes it was! Good catch, it has been removed. Thanks you!
Got me at RENNtech <3
