This is a 2022 Mercedes-AMG SL63 finished in Alpine Gray with a black power-folding soft top and black leather interior. It is offered as a repossessed asset and has undergone a post-repossession inspection.
The included VIN is W1KVK8BB6NF001368. The odometer displays approximately 14,453 miles. Factory equipment includes the Driver Assistance Package, Touring Line Package, 21-inch AMG wheels, AMG Active Ride Control suspension, rear-wheel steering, an AMG high-performance composite braking system, an AMG performance exhaust system, carbon fiber interior trim, heated and ventilated multi-contour front seats with massage function, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, an 11.9-inch MBUX infotainment touchscreen, and a Burmester surround sound system.

Description
The 2022 Mercedes-AMG SL63 represents the R232-generation reboot of the iconic SL roadster. Unlike its predecessor, this generation features a power-folding soft top in place of a retractable hardtop, a 2+2 seating configuration, and standard all-wheel-drive architecture. These changes position the SL63 as a direct competitor to convertible variants of the Porsche 911 and similar performance-oriented roadsters. The R232 generation is exclusively marketed under the Mercedes-AMG sub-brand in the United States, reflecting its performance-focused engineering and handling characteristics.
The exterior is finished in Alpine Gray and features an AMG-specific body kit, LED exterior lighting including active LED headlights, a retractable rear spoiler, and 21-inch AMG wheels. The post-repossession inspection noted wheel scratches consistent with typical road use. The black soft top operates via a power-folding mechanism and integrates with the vehicle’s aerodynamic profile when retracted.
Inside, the cabin features black leather upholstery with carbon fiber trim elements. The front seats are heated, ventilated, and power-adjustable with multi-contour support and an integrated massage function. AirScarf technology directs warm air to occupants’ neck areas during top-down driving. The driver interfaces with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and an 11.9-inch touchscreen running the MBUX infotainment system, which includes navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and augmented video for navigation. A Burmester surround sound system, wireless device charger, active ambient lighting, and a head-up display are also present. The heated AMG performance steering wheel incorporates AMG Drive Unit buttons and is mounted on a power-adjustable column.
Power is supplied by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, designated M177 internally, producing 577 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission that routes power to all four wheels through an AMG electronic limited-slip differential. The chassis incorporates AMG Active Ride Control suspension, rear-wheel steering, and an AMG high-performance composite braking system. The AMG performance exhaust system provides variable sound characteristics.
