[R129 SL] AMG Package

[Tracy W. Walkup]

Phil,
 
AMG made a few of the 129 cars as SL60 AMG models.  I just missed buying one
a couple of months ago.
 
Engine mods, suspension, aero kit.  A true AMG treatment.
 
Google SL60 and you will find some history.
 
Tracy

Thanks for your help. Are the Riken Raptors better than the Pilots?

Phil, from what I have seen and read on the subject the AMG package was
offered as an option on the 129 series cars.  This included both the SL500
and the SL600.  The package was a dress up add on and included Xenon
headlights (headlamp wiper delete), 18" staggered width wheels with z rated
low profile tires, a front body trim and grille change, side (under the
doors) body trim with a aerodynamic shape and a rear body trim (under the
trunk) panel change.  That is the entire package.  The wheels and tires
alone gave the entire car a more aggressive look and wider stance which I
like.  I have recently added the AMG wheels, and I fitted these with Riken
Raptor (Michelin) tires to my 1996 SL500.  Very happy so far.
 
Happy Motoring - George

Does anybody own an SL600 with the AMG package and is it worth the extra
money? What is included?
