Tired of cabins dominated by screens? Unimpressed by the instant performance of turbocharged engines? Craving a purpose-built supercar with true presence? This 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT Final Edition is the antidote to your synthetic, digitalized daily driver. Up for sale on Bring a Trailer with just 1,717 miles on the odometer, the beefy brute is your opportunity to own one of 350 of the last of the SLS breed, and that's important. While the AMG GT that took its place has similar styling and a more powerful (turbocharged) V8, it shares a platform with the softer Mercedes SL convertible, and that means it's more sportscar than supercar. This SLS, however, was built as a standalone tribute to the iconic Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing from the 1960s, and its old-school naturally aspirated engine is dripping with character.
What Makes The SLS AMG GT Final Edition Special
AMG's iconic 6.2-liter M159 V8 sits under the enormously long hood where it develops 583 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque, but this hand-assembled V8 is mounted behind the front axle, giving the SLS surprisingly nimble handling. As a Final Edition, this Obsidian Black Metallic example wears a carbon fiber hood, front splitter, and fixed rear wing borrowed from the insanely raucous SLS Black Series. The car also boasts 19- and 20-inch staggered forged light-alloy wheels, behind which gray-painted brake calipers bite down on cross-drilled and slotted discs. On the rear axle is the growling monster's solution to weight and handling balance: a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transaxle gearbox connected to a limited-slip differential.

Matching the exterior details is a cabin festooned with carbon fiber and black Nappa leather, along with an Alcantara-wrapped flat-bottomed steering wheel with a grey noon marker and accent stitching. More Alcantara is found on the roof lining, and grey double-stitching gives the leather interior a bit more pizzazz, both for the dash and the quilted (and heated) seats with their grey seatbelts. Admittedly, the COMAND infotainment system was already less than stellar in its day and would be almost useless now, a decade later, but the numerous buttons and aluminum switches in this cockpit still look more special than a blank slab of screens.
SLS Final Edition Selling For Less Than Sticker
Happily, the gullwing doors on this example have not led to any obvious scratches or wear on the sills, and in fact, the entire car looks immaculate. The Carfax report also shows no damage history. As such, it's no wonder that bidding has reached $200,000 at the time of writing, with six days left on the auction. As high as that price is, this car's window sticker shows an original retail price of $224,605. Of course, you could spend $202,200 on a 2026 AMG GT 63 S E Performance or the same on the GT 63 Pro 4MATIC+, but both those cars come with turbochargers and conventional doors. This SLS is truly the last of its kind, never to be repeated, and with a current bid below its original MSRP or that of its contemporary replacements, it's arguably something of a bargain for a future classic.
