Vehicle Detail
1993 Mercedes Benz 600SL We are here for you at MotoeXotica (SRS Enterprises, Inc.)Classic Cars and will ensure your online buying experience will be a pleasurable one from start to finish. We are now in our 10th year selling on Ebay with over 1,300 positive feedbacks! MotoeXotica was one of the Pioneer Classic Car dealers on Ebay and have seen a lot of dealers come and go. We have a brick and mortar 30,000 sq. ft. building on 5 acres in St. Louis, MO to serve you; we like to sell our cars the same way as we would like to purchase them, fairly and honestly. We ask for a nominal $500.00 credit card deposit and give you a 7 day grace period to inspect the car. If you find the car not to your liking we will refund your deposit with no questions asked should you get here and not like the vehicle. We all know that the financial times right now are tough. With the stock market being so volatile and investments becoming less valuable, many people are turning to the classic car market to invest their money. Putting your money into a hard asset that you can enjoy everyday is becoming a very popular option, especially now when the marketplace is lower then it’s been in many years. We invite you to put your money into a vehicle that is fun to own and brings back memories of when you were younger. We offer financing through two of the best lenders in the industry. If you visit www.jjbest.com or www.woodsidecredit.com they are currently offering very attractive rates for all collector and special interest automobiles. With loan amounts from $10,000 to $500,000, and flexible terms of up to 12 years, you can get financed for as low as 6.99%. We have recently started to offer some of our cars at a Fixed "Buy It Now" Price on Ebay. If you would like to send us a reasonable offer, please feel free to do so by clicking on the blue "Make Offer" button. We will promptly get back to you with an answer. We have found that many people don't have the time or want to get involved in the auction process. We are hoping this will make it easier for you to purchase the car of your dreams! Please feel free to contact us at anytime during the duration of the auction as many of our vehicles are sold through our dealership before the Ebay auction ends. Please see my "ME" Page for other exciting cars of distinction on EBAY. Start Slideshow Stop Slideshow Next Image Previous Image The R129 was based on the shortened floorpan of the Mercedes-Benz W124 and featured many innovative details for the time, for instance electronically controlled damping (optional) and a hidden, automatically extending roll-over bar. The R107's rather dated rear diagonal swing axle gave way to a modern multi-link axle. The number of standard features was high, with electric action for the windows, mirrors, seats and hood. The 1991-2000 Mercedes-Benz SL, which was Mercedes' top of the line convertible, bowed for 1991 with 300SL and 500SL iterations. These were two-ton cars, which contributed to solidity but that hampered acceleration with the 300's 228-horse 3.0-liter inline 6. The 500's 322-horse 5.0-liter V-8 had considerably more pep. With the most horsepower was the huge V12 that was producing 389 horsepower. With only 686 made and a base price of almost $120,000 these weren’t for everyone. Originally sold in Las Vegas, the car spent its life there until 2001 when it went to Colorado Springs Colorado where it was only driven around 10,000 miles in the 8 years of ownership. In 2008 the car came to Illinois where we purchased it. Now showing only 56,000 original miles, the car is in excellent condition and is loaded with options. Outside, the paint is in excellent condition with no major imperfections to be found. The only spots are a few very small rock chips to the hood and front bumper as would be expected from a 17 year old car. The removable hard top is in great condition as is the soft top which looks new. All the glass is perfect with no chips or cracks that we have found. Inside, the seats are both in excellent condition with no major wear to be found. There is some wear to the drivers seat side bolster but it is not torn. The passenger seat is nearly perfect as well as the carpet, hardtop headliner, dash and wood trim. There has been an updated sound system installed in the car that sounds great. It includes an Alpine AM/FM CD player with a 6 disc in the trunk and updated Boston Acoustic speakers and an Alpine amp behind the seats. In the center console, there has been a K40 radar installed. The big V12 under the hood runs great. On the road the car is a monster and will accelerate past 100 mph as fast as most cars accelerate past 50. These Benz’s are made to run well over 100 mph on the German Autobahn all day long and this car is very capable of doing such a thing! Under the hood is very clean and detailed and appears completely stock. The chrome 18” wheels around the car look good but do have some pitting. Most notably to the front, passenger side wheel. The car does come with all original manuals and leather bound Mercedes booklet. The current mileage shows 56,840 and is actual. This represents only 3,400 miles per year, leaving plenty of room to drive and enjoy with minimal upkeep. The car does have a clean Carfax and three owners. This is a fantastic driving SL Mercedes with a V12. These cars are extremely rare to find in this year and low mileage. The car is being sold on a clean Illinois title.

The vehicle is offered with a right to a personal inspection by any bidder or agent of any bidder. The Vehicle is being sold by a Licensed State of Missouri Dealer (SRS Enterprises, Inc.). Any Missouri resident must pay local MO sales tax and licensing fees. All other will do so in their home state. All used vehicles should be assumed to have some degree of wear. No vehicle is perfect to everyone. Each vehicle has its strengths, styles, tendencies and shortcomings. Therefore, despite our best efforts to verify a vehicle's mechanical condition, we are not able to warranty a manufacturer’s workmanship or previous owner’s diligence in care. It is for this reason that all vehicles are sold "AS IS". We have described the above mentioned vehicle to the best of our ability. However, with all pre-owned automobiles, the condition is subjective. Please be advised that no oral or written statements concerning any vehicle constitutes a representation or warranty of the condition of the said vehicle. The vehicle is available for inspection prior to bidding. If you are the high bidder and unable to inspect said vehicle before auction close, you or an agent will have seven(7) days to inspect said vehicle after the close of auction. I encourage a physical inspection strongly to avoid any misunderstandings or representations. All disputes arising out of or resulting from this sale shall be finally determined by binding arbitration in St. Louis, Missouri in accordance with the commercial rules of arbitration of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall be carried out by one or more arbitrators in accordance with said rules. Any award shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction in the same manner as judgments. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive the sale of the automobile described herein. Buyer and Seller hereby agree that Missouri law shall control for all purposes under this Bill of Sale. Buyer and Seller hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Missouri to specifically enforce the agreement to arbitrate and to enter judgment of and enforce the award of the arbitrator. All above terms and conditions are applied to vehicle sales, whether through Ebay or otherwise. Sorry, but in all fairness to the bidding process, I will NOT disclose my reserve price until the auction has ended. Payment Terms Payment must be made by Cashiers Check, Money Orders or Wire Transfers payable in US Dollars. A Refundable deposit in the amount of $500.00 must be received within Twenty-Four(24)hours of the auctions close either by Master Card, Visa or PayPal. The buyer has seven(7) days from close of auction to inspect the vehicle. If the vehicle is not to your liking within this seven day inspection period then your deposit will be refunded 100%. If an inspection or decision takes longer then seven days and you find the vehicle not to your liking, your deposit will be forfeited and the car will be relisted. Final payment must be received within ten (10) days of the auction close. The refundable deposit only applies if you or an agent inspect said vehicle in St. Louis and find it not to your liking. I will not be responsible for buyers remorse or problems found to said vehicle once they have left my property. I am just being realistic, most of the cars I deal in are vintage and by their very nature will need TLC and some degree of attention sooner or later. These are not new cars and should not be treated as such. Once full payment has been received, Seller will fax a copy of clear title, Bill of sale, Buyers guide and additional DMV forms to the Buyer to sign and return via fax. The forms must be returned to the Seller prior to the shipment of said vehicle. Original paperwork will be sent to Buyer Via overnight mail seven(7)days from date of final payment.
