Another Special Edition - 231 Mille Miglia 417

Here's an up close look at the 2016 SL 550 Mille Miglia 417 Edition. The '417' number indicates how many of these were made by Mercedes-Benz in 2016.

Like other 231 Special Editions, this one has a lot of exclusive styling features not available on other 231's.

Well, my mother always said “if you can’t say something nice about someone, don’t say anything at all.” In this case, it’s not about a person, it’s about this car. I’m not going to say anything at all.

Well, hopefully that's not because it's a SL 550 'MM'...

so far it has been great. I was looking for convertible and just never liked the look of a cloth top. I originally was going to buy an SL 63 and then stumbled upon the MM edition and fell in love with the matte black and red accents. Performance is not what I am used to but I have a new cat back exhaust on order and tune that should help a lot.
