2003 SL55 AMG
2003 SL55 AMG Carlsson Edition

I just bought a 2003 SL55 AMG with Carlsson badging, wheels, and exhaust. Is there any way to tell if anything besides that has been done to the car? I'm not incredibly familiar with Mercedes cars yet as this is my first one, I just traded my 2002 Corvette in on this one. I have already sent an email to Carlsson America but they haven't replied yet and I'm really curious.

As I see it has the Carlsson exhaust, so maybe there can be more mods to it. Look under the hood and find out, look for a different intake etc. If it's fully modded it should be a CK 55 RS that can run up to 580-605 hp. Does the tacho go up to 225 mph or 360 kmh ? Check out at Carlsson.de and have it tested on a dyno ! The wheels are UltraLights (forged).

Whatever it is, nice car, congrats and drive it hard, but safe !
