Overview
The R231 SL550 arrived for 2013 as a full generational redesign, but 2012 marked the swan song of the outgoing R230, and this particular car makes a compelling case for the generation that defined grand touring for a decade. Finished in the rare designo Mystic Brown, a bespoke Mercedes individual color seldom seen in the market, it wears a Natural Beige and Black interior that complements the exterior with quiet sophistication. At just over 15,000 miles, this hardtop convertible has been preserved in essentially unexercised condition.

About the model
The R230 SL550 represents the final, fully developed expression of a lineage stretching back to the original 1954 Gullwing. Long the choice of discerning buyers who valued open air touring without compromise, low mileage survivors in rare individual colors have become genuinely difficult to find, and collector interest has grown steadily as the generation recedes into history.

From buyers
Driven by relationship. Defined by trust.
Bought sight unseen and to say it exceeded our expectations is an understatement.
I purchased a car from RFMC sight unseen, and the experience was every bit as rewarding as I had expected.
Submitted an inquiry on a Sunday night and Danny responded quickly with information.
I was hesitant to buy a car online that I had never seen, but Ryan and his team made it a very easy and pleasurable experience.
As an out-of-state buyer, I had some reservations about purchasing a car sight unseen, but my experience with RFMC couldn't have been better.
We just took delivery of a PTS 911 Turbo S and we couldn't be happier.
I never felt any pressure to buy. Every car is in like new condition or better.
Delivered fully serviced and in excellent condition.
They not only have the very best one off, special hard to find vehicles, they deliver the customer service and attention to detail.
The RFMC team is TOP shelf and TRUE car people.
It didn't feel like a transaction, it feels more like I made new friends.
No games, no pressure, and no nonsense. Just honest, transparent communication from start to finish.
