To celebrate the anniversary of the original 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster, Mercedes has announced they'll be producing a limited number of 50th Anniversary Edition SL550's.

As you can see from the photographs, the commemorative SL has donned a lovely Pewter metallic exterior paint finish, a cognac brown leather interior accented with Black Ash wood interior trim, custom 18" aluminum twin-spoke wheels, and a rear shelf bag complete with Anniversary Edition tag. Of course, the 50th Anniversary Edition SL is equipped with all the standard SL goodies as well.

Pricing for the 50th Anniversary Mercedes SL550 isn't listed, at least not that I found; but if you're interested, I'd recommend you act quickly, 'cause they're probably going to go fast.
