Spectacular Firemist Red & Java Leather SL500 This SL500 is a remarkable car. I inherited it from my father-in-law who purchased it NEW. If I didn’t already have a convertible, I would not be selling this car. It has been maintained at a local Mercedes Benz dealership which means that the service history is available. The Firemist Red and buttery Java Nappa leather interior is breathtaking. Lots of character, lots of class. At the time, this was a special order metallic color from Benz. It’s NOT an obnoxious stereotypical sports-car-red. It is a very elegant, smart looking color. The burl elm wood interior is rich and striking; it perfectly complements the luxurious leather interior. The car has always been garaged, covered, and never driven in the elements. The paint is in fantastic condition and the leather is pristine. It has NEVER been smoked in. Driving the car is a pleasure. There is nothing like a Benz V8 to deliver a silky smooth torque curve (339 lb/ft) with PLENTY of power (302hp)on demand. The car handles extremely well yet also maintains a very smooth ride. This SL is loaded with nearly every possible feature. Note that this car clocked in just under $100,000.00 when new. In today’s dollars, this would be a $200,000.00 car. It has just about every luxury feature as a standard item including: · 10 way power seats with 3 position memory · Power tilt and telescoping steering wheel · Bose Acoustimass audio system with subwoofer and 6 speakers · One touch retractable top · Alarm system · Traction control (ESP) and anti-lock brakes · Heated power mirrors with memory · Keyless entry with one-touch window close feature · Digital automatic climate control with dust/pollen filter · Rain sensing windshield wipers · Tinted glass Features, features, and AMG…. When I say this car is loaded, it is equipped beyond belief with all of the big money options, totaling over $10,000.00 including: · SL1 option Package & SL2 Option Package · Heated seats (two stage) · Panorama glass roof with integrated sunshade · Xenon headlights · Integrated Factory CD Changer · Sport Package · AMG desgined lower body aerodynamic enhancements · Projector beam front fog lamps · 5 Spoke AMG alloy 18” wheels · Z Rated LOW profile WIDE performance tires (245/40ZR front & 275/35 ZR rear) Being an MB product, safety is of paramount importance. This car features 4 airbags (front and side), BabySmart recognition system, traction control, anti-lock brakes, seat belts with emergency tension retractors, and the list goes on…. My reserve is set less than $20,000.00, which is just a terrific deal for this exotic car. For any winning bid over my reserve, I will contribute $100.00 toward your actual transportation costs. Buyer is however responsible for arranging shipping. IF YOU USE BUY-IT-NOW, I will pay up to $1,000.00 toward the actual cost of transporting the car to you. Keep in mind that Buy-It-Now disappears after a few bids are placed or after a certain period of time. This is set by eBay. I have no control over when the option to use Buy-It-Now disappears. Buyer is however responsible for arranging shipping. Note that I have a 100% positive feedback rating; I take pride in delighting my customers.
