2003 SL55 AMG
04/05 SL 600 or 05/06 SL 55, new buyer
Hello Everyone
I will soon be looking for a new car and I have narrowed my search down to the sl600 or sl55amg. I was wondering if anyone had insight on the pros/cons of each.
Also, obviously the car would be without warranty, and I was wondering if it was worth it to get an aftermarket warranty or those years. Thanks for the help!

I like my sl600 because the torque is great and most 600's have some interior upgrades, nicer leather, alcantara headliner, and an extra hundred horse is just a tune away, but the 55's have more parts you can throw on for reasonable, intakes, blowers, headers, throttles, etc.
