No 030! But otherwise seems to be loaded. I am still trying to figure out what all of the options were for 2007. There is a silver 030 on ebay for 80k but does not seem to have a lot of the other options.

07 SL55 P30 Designo - Sold, 06 E55 Wagon, 04 CLK55A - sold
Available Options

My 07 SL55 has the highest MSRP I've seen yet (altho Mark Anderson's is close). I was told it had every option available, so you can maybe use these items as a gauge:
- Designo Mystic White Edition
- Charcoal Exclusive Leather
- Distronic
- Parktronic
- Voice Control
- Active Ventilated Seats
- Panorama Roof with Sunshade
- Bi-Xenon Headlamps
- Electronic Trunk Closer
- Keyless Go
- AMG Performance Package
MSRP - $163,545.00
- I added the Bluetooth Puck so I guess it's "fully loaded" now.

BTW, I went from a 2004 CLK55A to this. While I loved the CLK, this is just an absolutely amazing machine !

Sorry for the awful images but a photographer I am not!

I haven't looked...what is the price?

Not exactly the best color, but I don't mind it. Good miles, no 030 (though that's quite rare). I assume there is warranty remaining on an 06 (though you should confirm).

I am OK with the fact that I am unlikely to find an 030 - though I would prefer it. I found one on ebay, but the price seems crazy. I will likley upgrade the wheels and tires anyway.

I am checking on the warranty issue.

The color is different. Actually it is very similar to my ZX-7R - Kind of unique...

Distronic is ....

the radar controlled cruise. Pretty neat, as long as it works. Voice control allows you to change functions on the audio/phone/nav system by voice command. Kinda cool, but I've had it in two other SL's and didn't use it. I'm attaching a picture of my 06 030 that's for sale. Probably not the color you want ,and has no pano or park. But does have 030, keyless, AV seats, dynamic seats, xenons. Just turned 30k. PM if it holds an interest. Whatever you choose, these are great cars to drive, and so much performance for the $$.

Thanks. Since I never use the cruise I am ok w/o the distronic. We have the voice control in my wife's X5 and also don't use it. Car looks great. Bright red is not my color, but looks hot with the dark interior.
