Mercedes AMG R230 SL55 P30

My project is to account for each one of the 169,434 R230 SLs produced, not just the 'interesting' ones. I am about 92,000 in so quite a way to go yet. There are several VINs that I couldn't find, but the year models where SL55 P30s feature (2006-7-8) are all present and accounted for.

My 2006 SL55AMG P30
Here is my 2006 SL55 AMG with P30 option 68500 miles. It has RENNtech R2 package plus belt wrap and long tube headers with cat2 delete.
I purchased it last week from a Tennessee owner. It started in Ohio then to California before Tennessee. Now it is in South Carolina where I hope to keep it for a long time.

Anyway to find out how many with P30 were white that year?

Does this mean that mine is 1 of 26 delivered to US in 2006 model year for SL55 AMG Alabaster White paint with AMG Ash interior and P30 option?

Ah didn't know this thread existed but saw it mentioned on BAT.
Here is my 2007 SL55 P30 in Mystic White on porcelain interior with 32k miles. I believe 1 of 1 in this combo and 1 of very few in Mystic White?

Finally another P30 with SL65 color wheel centers! Did you have them painted, coated or actual 65 wheels? Mine are powder coated. Mystic white is a gorgeous color, what’s your BAT handle?

These are factory SL65 wheels that I picked up off MBWorld. I have my silver OEM SL55 wheels in storage still. I'm not active on BAT. Just a lurker 👀

Very nice specimen- congrats! Can you give me the last 6 digits of your VIN? (PM me if you prefer). I maintain a register of R230s and P30s in particular and its nice to know where these cars live and who the owners are.
Based on my records, there were a total of 9 MY 2007 Mystic White P30s sold in the US. All came with the Exclusive Leather - Black/Anthracite (511A) interior and X27 Leather Designo Porcelain Single-Color option. I don't know which of the 9 is yours (hence the request for the last 6 of your VIN), but all 9 cars came with the same W64 Maple Grain Designo Natural Trim Pieces. Your photos show carbon fiber trim, so it may have been a dealer or post purchase change.
