Fahrzeugbeschreibung

Finished in Polar White with a gray leather interior. The window sticker shown in the gallery reveals that this SL500 cost $92,555 new, which represents about $150,000 in 2021. It's equipped with 16-inch wheels, a black fabric soft top, a body-colored hardtop, wood interior trim, and a 6-speaker sound system, among other features. The seller reports no modifications.Service records included in the photo gallery total over $18,000 of maintenance performed on this SL since 2012. All of the soft top's hydraulic cylinders were notably replaced with new units from Top Hydraulics in August 2020.Mercedes-Benz sold the R129-generation SL from 1990 to 2002, and several visual cues (like the shape of the vents behind the front wheels and the rear lights) identify this SL500 as one of the later models built. It's quicker than its predecessor, the long-lived R107 model, yet it's far simpler than the R230 model introduced in 2003.Power for this SL500 comes from a 5.0-liter V8, which produces 315 horsepower and 347 lb-ft of torque. It spins the rear wheels via a 5-speed automatic transmission.
