The new 2011 SL550 roadster is slated to be released this month to dealerships. I’m not sure if anyone noticed, but there were no 2010 SLs, Mercedes went straight from 2009 to 2011. There aren’t a whole lot of changes for the 2011 model year. They’re offering the new Quartz Blue color also available on the C and E classes for the SL in addition to some new interior trim.

It will be another couple of years before a complete makeover on the SL. There is a special edition SL550 Night Edition being released, just 100 units. You can read about that specific special edition in the press release here:

MONTVALE, NJ Mercedes-Benz USA announced the limited-edition 2011 SL550 Night Edition. Based on the iconic SL-Class coupe/roadster, the highlight of the SL550 Night Edition is its matte-finish designo magno night black paint and Black premium leather interior.

Limited to just 100 units, this exclusive model will be available in U.S. showrooms in early 2010.

The special designo magno night black paint finish — specially developed exclusively for the SL550 Night Edition — works particularly well with the dramatic design of the SL-Class. The Night Edition rolls on 19-inch AMG five-spoke light-alloy wheels in a two-tone, high-gloss finish, silver-painted front brake calipers with “Mercedes-Benz” script and darkened headlamps/tail lights help distinguish the exclusive status of the SL550 Night Edition.

The interior features a striking contrast of dark Black premium leather and bright chrome trim, with numerous fine details. The newly-designed seats have arrow-shaped seams and silver-colored contrasting features, while the sports steering wheel, shift lever and roof lining are trimmed in black. The trim strip of the wind-deflector has a high-gloss finish complimented by the silver-colored vents of the AIRSCARF® system, which bathes the driver in warm air when the convertible top is down during cooler weather.
