SL 55 August Delivery
Hey Guys! I just about to get my SL55. But it is the 476hp. I heard a rumour that there would be 493 or 496hp to be built in the coming months. Guy! Please advise me.

Its not 476, they are all 500bhp - mine came thru 2 weeks ago (but is still at the dealer waiting for a part to fix an issue), and I have the COC papers which show 500BHP
The first (few) were allegedly not as powerful.
Remember, this is 500 European HP, North American HP is different - but I dont know how
Post pictures when it arrives !

Offfically just under 500
The most recent literature I have see from MBUSA still keeps the Official horsepower as under 500. However, I suspect actual testing will bear out 500 hp.
