The Black Series was meant for supreme performance, it was offered as a hardtop. Accompanying the fixed roof was a multitude of improvements to the performance, suspension, brakes, aerodynamics, and drivetrain. The ultimate Mercedes-Benz two passenger high-performance sportscar. This 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series is one of 175 examples produced for the US.

A special plaque bearing the signature of the engines builder is affixed to the engine cover.

During its time with the first 2 owners, the SL65 Black Series was regularly serviced by Euro Motorcars. The car was purchased by its third owner in June 2012, and driven an average of only 95 miles per year. The car was regularly serviced and maintained by Mercedes dealerships. Prior to its arrival here at Canepa, the vehicle went through a major service including new tires and complete service of air-conditioning, cooling system, electrical, hydraulic components, and transmission. This SL65 AMG Black Series was treated to the same Canepa Difference process every vehicle that comes to Canepa goes through.
