Matte Black w/Black/Red interior, 4.7L/449hp Twin-Turbo V8, 7-speed automatic transmission.
It’s impossible to ignore this special Mille Miglia version of the SL. Offered only in matte black, it comes exclusively with black wheels measuring 19 inches up front and 20 inches at the back. Inside and out, the Mille Miglia 417 is littered with red accents. It’s not discreet, but it is well executed.
Top up or down, the SL550 Mille Miglia 417 looks aggressive, and it is fast: 60 mph comes up in just over four seconds, according to Mercedes, and it can reach a governed 155 mph.
This exceptional 2016 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Mille Miglia 417 Special Edition is a rare and highly desirable example showing just 13,229 original miles. Created to commemorate Mercedes-Benz’s historic victory in the legendary 1955 Mille Miglia, the 417 Special Edition blends timeless grand touring luxury with exclusive design cues and exhilarating V8 performance.
Under the hood is a powerful 4.7-liter twin-turbocharged V8 producing 449 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, paired with a smooth and responsive 9-speed automatic transmission. The result is effortless acceleration, refined cruising manners, and the kind of performance expected from one of Mercedes-Benz’s flagship roadsters.
What sets the Mille Miglia 417 Special Edition apart is its distinctive combination of exclusivity and style. Special edition appointments include unique trim and design elements inspired by Mercedes’ motorsport heritage, giving this SL an added layer of collector appeal beyond the already elegant and sporting SL550 platform. With its retractable hardtop, luxurious interior, and advanced technology, this roadster offers the best of both worlds: open-air excitement and coupe-like comfort.
With just over 13,229 miles from new, and a recent service, this SL550 presents as a beautifully preserved example of one of Mercedes-Benz’s most refined and sophisticated modern roadsters. Rare, striking, and exceptionally well cared for, this Mille Miglia 417 Special Edition is the kind of car that stands out whether displayed in a collection or enjoyed on the open road.
