Mercedes-Benz is one manufacturer that has not only stood the test of time but has also given the automotive world some of its greatest hurrahs. For instance, if you turn back the clock to the 1950’s the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing was dominating racetracks and then going on to shock everyone on the road with its sleek design and epic gullwing doors. The same recipe was followed over 50 years later with the iconic Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG which incorporated those epic design cues and set the tone for what was to come. Owning an SLS AMG means you own a future classic. So why not own one? This 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS-Class AMG Coupe is a good way to go about it. Located in Florida and with just 13,500 miles on the clock this low mileage example is not only a good way to stand out but proving to be a very savvy investment as well.
