2004 SL 600
SL 600 AMG or not?

I have a 2004 SL 600-I just found a factory inquiry (which has the costs of the options and codes, but it isn''t the actual sticker) and it lists a code 321 AMG Sport Package for a $5210. It also has the keyless go for another $1,040, and alacantra leather. But there are no AMG emblems on the right rear of the car, nor anything else that suggests AMG. Vin is WDBSK 76F24F071323
Yes or no?
Also, what are basic differences in SL 600 and SL 65?
Thank you

Seriously?

Your car has the sport package. It's merely an SL600 with AMG bumpers and wheels.

The only cars to adorn the AMG badge are true AMG cars from the factory, eg SL55, SL63, SL65....

Basic difference between the SL600 and SL65 is everything. SL65 has a 6.0L V12 TT while you have a 5.5L V12 TT. SL65 has different suspension, brakes, wheels, exhaust, seats, pedals, speedometer, etc.

Two very different cars.
