Rare European Model with original AMG package which included front air dam, side skirts, 16″ Arial wheels and monochromatic paint. This is a European model and as such features the headlight style, bumpers and rear deck spoiler of the cars sold there. Very few were imported to North America and this one first arrived in Nevada where it remained until its purchase by the current owner in 2004. It was at this time that it entered Canada and its time in the dry conditions of Nevada are evident in the overall condition; a state the current owner was careful to preserve by avoiding rain and snow. White with black leather interior and rare optional rear seat. Includes removable hardtop with stand and a newer soft top. The car was $120,000 new and has been appraised more recently at $19,000.
