MB Archive - CL65 data
Getting ALL the data involves scraping it from the VIN decoder sites, which is fairly painful. My approach requires some knowledge of web scripts and SQL databases. I used a CAPTCHA solving service in my script to get to the build data.

Cl65 numbers
The MB archive is a good place to start. For some reason they don't provide all production counts, but it will give you a rough idea. The CL65 production appears to be fewer than 3000. They show 777 units for 2004-2005, no data for 2007-2010, and 1132 units for 2010-2013. The production number is under "General Data" tab. They'll have a number or show "not separately documented".

Thanks for the reply.
I was hoping you might have the code in a GIT repo or something and I could use your code to get started.
Would you mind sending me a pm?
Thanks.

I forgot that I also pulled data from the Mercedes EPC (MB parts catalog). If you have a local installation of EPC then the database used by the datacard feature is installed. In theory, it contains all models of MB vehicles. You would expect it to be the final authority on all MB vehicles, but it was missing quite a few of the SL65s, so it's not perfect.
It's been a while since I messed with the EPC database. I'll see what I can find there for 215379 and 216379.

@Zoso7 I can help anyone interested in SL65 numbers. I managed to scrape data for the SL65s from a VIN decoder site. I have data for all years, both R230 and R231.
What's the VIN for your SL65?

@jmattioni, any info you have on my SL65 would be great, thanks!

I've recently added data for SL55 and SL63 for all years, as well as SLS and SLR McClaren. I'm still in the process of hunting down gaps in the data, but it looks fairly complete.

Here's the stats report and build sheet for your vehicle. I've been adding features to the stats report, like the background image and facelift stats, so you're the first to see those. Let me know if anything looks wrong. Thanks.
