The body is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744U) and features AMG styling cues including deep front and rear valances, side skirts, and quadruple exhaust outlets. The retractable folding hardtop is photographed in both its raised and lowered positions and zero leaks are reported in the hydraulics.
The multi-function steering wheel frames an leather-trimmed instrument cluster housing a 220-mph speedometer, tachometer, and digital odometer showing approximately 5,800 miles. OEM designo floor mats and AMG aluminum door sills adorn the lower portion of the cockpit as well.
The Brabus 20″ two-piece Monoblock VI wheels are reportedly free of any wear, curb rash or cracks and wear Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires measuring 265/30/20 and 305/25/20 respectively. The SL65 features auto-leveling Active Body Control (ABC) suspension and braking is provided by eight and four-piston calipers paired with slotted and cross-drilled rotors all around.
The March 2021 Carfax report shows history exclusive to southern California with no accidents or other damage indicated from December 2004 to March 2021. The car will be accompanied by all factory literature, Brabus receipt confirming engine modifications, and two key fobs. A cold start, driving, and walk around video have been added below.

Reserve has now been lifted for this auction!If it helps anyone make their decision this car will be transferring ownership today. GLGetting close to the end, would be happy to answer any question. thnx@fletcherjonesjr It was about 50% throttle. Not sure what it will be like at full throttle as the torque is scary at 50%. If you end up with it please upload a new video.@pcm1 Love the cold start. I am assuming that wasn't full acceleration? I have driven one in the past and the traction light was flashing well passed 80MPH.Additional videos showing cold start, driving, and walk around have been added to the listing.$100,000 bid placed by @fletcherjonesjr

@dean_laumbach ill try to get one done in the morning. As long as the traction stays on its manageable, I don't have what it takes to turn it off. Maybe the new owner might. ThanksNo drive video? LOL !!! Whenever I get a car with such low mileage and such athletic potential I also tend to be on the side of caution. I would love to drive this car at 70% of its potential, but it would require 100% of my driving ability. Fantastic listing here !!! Good Luck !!!@PCM1 That's perfect, thanks!An invoice from Brabus confirming the authenticity of performance modifications has been added to the gallery.$90,000 bid placed by @fletcherjonesjr
@dunfield80 Yes they did. We will upload the invoice. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks in advance.@PCM1 So Brabus verified the car when you acquired it in 2019? Any documentation from Brabus?$85,000 bid placed by @JHart1985
