I've owned this vehicle for 7 years, recently retired, and due to space considerations, I am selling this 1998 Mercedes two owner convertible. Very cold air conditioning (you need that here in Phoenix).The reason this has so many miles was that the original owner was a female lawyer in Alpine, California and it was 70 miles round trip to her office in San Diego. This vehicle has always been garaged, has the original paint, but could use a new dust coat. First the bad: Has about 5 dings on it, is missing the tow hook cover, I've repaired the overhead console, but it's due its age, needs to be repaired again (it works, though). and the passenger seat needs a stitch job. For an 18 year old car it's held up well! Now the good: Only used Mobil One Synthetic, has numerous part change out for the last two years, NEW brakes, windshield, hydraulic convertible top cylinders, MAF, battery, radiator, coil packs, spark plugs, has K & N air filters, radio w/6 cd player (original), Has the heated seats and Rain Sensor option. All gauges work, no "check engine" and great oil pressure! If you want, there's another set of genuine AMG wheels, but would need to have the rears refinished (got them like that for free). This vehicle also has the "bullet-proof" 5 speed transmission. It had the transmission's filter and fluid changed with Mercedes transmission fluid, very expensive, but a necessity, since there's no such thing as a "lifetime" transmission fluid and that was a year, ago. The transmission shifts flawlessly... Look at my feedback, so when I say you can drive this home anywhere in America, I mean it (although Hawaii, might be a challenge)!! I am starting this bid very low with NO RESERVE... I've added a comment about the hard top: NO, IT IS NOT INCLUDED, BECAUSE IT IS THE RARE PANORAMIC TOP IN GOOD CONDITION, BUT WOULD BE AVAILABLE OUTSIDE OF THIS AUCTION, IF INTERESTED, PLEASE SEE COMMENT BELOW...
