If you are searching for a fine SL, here it is . Please do not waste my time telling me about others that have 100K, need all kinds of work, etc. that you can buy for less. This car is the best deal on an SL. Priced fairly for anyone doing their due diligence. It has been perfectly serviced.   

I welcome any and all inspections. 

 

We have a family friend who does door to door, insured shipping, and will do so at a discounted rate to facilitate. Let me know if you need a quote. This is a super nice and well preserved SL500 Convertibles. The pictures tell most of the story...... and it is even more impressive in person. 

I reserve the right to end the listing early for any reason, as it is also being listed on other resources. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly at: 305-302-4617Properly stored year round and only driven in good weather. 

1999 Mercedes Benz SL500 Conv ( built 7/99 - late production) w/ 52900 miles - Very elegant - White / Gray roof / Gray interior. Everybody that knows this car says it still looks far newer than a 99 car. It is an awesome, non-smoking, 2 owner ( Dealer or European serviced ), that has been babied, always garaged, and barely seen rain. It is in outstanding, all original condition. Never modified ( except wheels ) in any way whatsoever. I have all of the original paperwork, books, 3 orig. keys, tool kit, and windscreen ( see pic ). CAR NEEDS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

The White exterior is in awesome condition, and has never had paint work. The moldings, handles, window glass, lettering, rubber seals, and all other exterior features are in crisp condition. The wheels are not discolored or corroded and the tires have good tread. The Gray soft top looks like new ( I did not take the hardtop off because you need 2 people around ) and all of the hydraulics that typically go bad have been replaced. Never run through an automatic car wash and always hand washed / waxed are a great part as to why it still looks so fabulous. No rust or wear to the undercarriage. A solid 9.5 on the outside.

On the inside, the Dove Gray interior still looks, feels, and maintains a newer appeal. As you can see in the pics, the seats have always been covered, and the orig. floor mats have Benz mats over them. The door panels, carpeting, dash, center console, faceplates, etc. are original. All of the interior buttons / switches ( power windows, door locks, cruise, antenna, and 6 way power seats ) work without issue. The stereo system w/ multi CD still plays perfect. The undercarriage is dry, spotless, and rust free too. A 9.75 inside. 

Mechanically, it starts, idles, and drives smoothly as a "well-oiled" machine should. Service is up to date - a/c, belts, hoses, fluids all changed / maintained at the proper intervals, along with convertible top hydraulics. The engine compartment is extra clean, and it performs without hesitation. No corner has been cut or expense spared. 

The next owner will have years of enjoyable and trouble free use, turning heads when you pull up or drive by.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

Daimler employees can set email to auto-delete during vacation

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

The Internet has shrunk the world in terms of the way people communicate by making it possible to send an email from Oslo and have it show up in Cleveland almost immediately. But that instant contact has wrecked the work/life balance for many. They get home from a long day at the office, yet they can never fully put their feet up and relax because another hour or more of checking and replying to emails awaits. However, German automotive giant Daimler is putting an end to that churn, at least while its employees are on vacation.
About 100,000 Daimler employees in Germany are eligible to opt-in to a new program called Mail on Holiday, according to The Atlantic. When the workers go on vacation, they can switch it on, and the service auto-deletes all of their incoming email. "Our employees should relax on holiday and not read work-related emails," said Wilfried Porth, board member for human resources, to The Financial Times as cited by The Atlantic.
Mail on Holiday puts a thumb on the scale of work/life balance in favor of a little more free time. The system means that Daimler employees shouldn't even be tempted to check their email on vacation because there's nothing there - and it also avoids them coming back from a relaxing holiday only to find a mailbox packed full of hundreds of unread messages. These days, people are absolutely obsessed with their work, often to the detriment of their health, not to mention spending time with their families and friends. On one hand, Mail on Holiday sounds like the sort of vacation breakthrough we'd need to truly unplug and unwind, but on the other hand, it makes our skin crawl just thinking about the lack of communication.

Test drive the Mercedes SLS AMG Electric Drive with Chris Harris

Thu, 11 Apr 2013

It's hard to not like the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT. The all-aluminum coupe is fitted with a wonderful naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 delivering 583 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. Not only does the burly combustion engine launch the two-seater to 60 miles per hour in less than four seconds, but it does so with one of the world's greatest exhaust soundtracks as it roars, burbles and cackles down the road.
But what happens when Mercedes-Benz takes away the V8 and its accompanying fire-burning song? Stripped of one of its most appealing assets, does the SLS lose its soul?
Chris Harris recently had the opportunity to take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Electric Drive for a track spin in Europe. Sans gasoline, but with four electric motors providing a combined 740 horsepower (737 pound-feet of torque), all-electric all-wheel drive coupe uses sophisticated torque vectoring and a multi-mode operating system to put oversteer - drifting! - back into the equation. Fun? You bet. See for yourself, below.
