This one-owner 2015 Mercedes-Benz S550 was previously listed on The MB Market in 2022. It was sold new at Mercedes-Benz of Salisbury, Maryland in September of 2014 before undergoing a six-figure armoring and protection upgrade by the selling dealer. It is finished in Black (040) over Black/Anthracite (201) leather upholstery and shows only 4,050 miles from new. Power is provided by a twin-turbocharged 4.7-liter V8 paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. Equipment includes the Premium package, Keyless-Go, Lighting package, and Driver Assistance package along with COMAND navigation, a Burmester 3D surround sound system, dynamic LED headlights, and staggered-width 20″ wheels. This heavily-armored flagship sedan offers protection at the A9/B6+ level and includes roof and floor anti-mine protection, fuel tank/battery/ECU protection, armored firewall and wheel wells, a Public Announcement & Multi-siren system, blue/red emergency strobe lights, anti-sabotage exhaust system and much more. The car has remained with the selling dealer/armorer since new and has been used as a demonstration & show vehicle for the company. This W222 is now offered by the selling dealer in Virginia with a new battery, manufacturer’s literature, a clean One-Owner Carfax report, a limited warranty for the armoring/tech upgrades, and a clean Virginia title.

The body is finished in Black (040) and features chrome accents at the bumpers and side skirts. Additional equipment includes dynamic LED headlights, power-folding side mirrors, and dual exhaust outlets that have been specially modified to prevent sabotage from outside threats. Despite the massive construction efforts to armor reinforce the interior cabin, the exterior paintwork is reportedly all original and is free of major flaws or imperfections.

Gloss black, staggered-width 20″ alloy wheels are wrapped in new Pirelli P-Zero tires sized 245/40 up front and 275/35 out back. All four tires show 2021 date codes. The car is equipped with an AIRMATIC semi-active air suspension, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel discs with cross-drilled rotors.
auction image
The cabin features climatized active multicontour front seats and heated rear seats upholstered in Black (201) leather. Burled Walnut wood trim adorns the cabin, and additional amenities include COMAND with navigation, a Burmester 3D surround sound system, ambient lighting, a surround view system, and front and rear parking sensors. The Driving Assistance Package adds Distronic Plus adaptive cruise control, active blind spot assist, and active lane keeping assist.

The MB Market Insights

A shiny Black on Black S-Class sedan always cuts an authoritative image, and the familiar adage that Mercedes-Benz vehicles were “built like a tank” surely applies here, more than ever. Add in the auxiliary red/blue emergency lighting and the PA/Sirens and you can live out your shady diplomat fantasies with stealth and security in this super-sedan. With enough armor to stop a barrage of assault rifles, IEDs and other explosive devices, this S-Class is strong enough to withstand the toughest conditions across the globe or afford passengers peace of mind through security and proven reliability.
