THE EXTERIOR IS FINISHED IN THE ULTRA DESIRABLE SMOKE SILVER METALLIC AND COMPLIMENTED WITH A PARCHMENT LEATHER INTERIOR AND A BLACK CONVERTIBLE TOP. IT HAS 74,000 MILES FROM NEW AND WAS WITHOUT A DOUBT VERY WELL CARED FOR IT'S ENTIRE LIFE. THIS CAR WAS CLOSE TO $100,000 WHEN NEW AND ASIDE FROM THE LONG LIST OF STANDARD EQUIPMENT, THIS SL500 HAS THE VERY DESIRABLE FACTORY AMG SPORT PACKAGE WHICH GIVES IT FRONT, REAR AND SIDE GROUND EFFECTS AS WELL AS 18 INCH STAGGARED AMG WHEELS. IT ALSO HAS HEATED SEATS AND A FACTORY CD CHANGER. WE HAVE SOLD OVER 100 OF THIS BODY STYLE SL CONVERTIBLES AND KNOW THEM VERY, VERY WELL. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THEIR ARE NICE ONE'S AND LOTS OF NOT SO NICE ONE'S THAT HAVE NOT BEEN PROPERLY CARED FOR. THIS ONE HAS BEEN LOVED AND PAMPARED AND PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP IS EVIDENT FROM FRONT TO REAR. THE PAINT AND BODY ARE IN EXCELLENT OVERALL CONDITION WITH NO BLEMS WORTH MENTIONING. THE AMG FRONT BUMPER COVER IS NOT CRACKED UP LIKE MOST OF THEM, THE AMG WHEELS ARE IN GREAT SHAPE WITH SOME VERY MINOR SCRAPES ON THE OUTSIDE EDGE OF A FEW OF THE WHEELS AND ARE WRAPPED IN MATCHED MICHELIN TIRES FRONT AND REAR. THE FRONTS HAVE PLENTY OF LIFE LEFT AND THE REARS ARE GOOD BUT GETTING THIN IN THE CENTER OF THE TIRE AND PROBABLY WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED IN THE NEXT FEW THOUSAND MILES. THE ODOR FREE INTERIOR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND NOT ONLY DOES EVERYTHING SEEM TO WORK AS DESIGNED, BUT THE WOOD AND LEATHER SHOW MINIMAL WEAR AND LOOK VERY NICE AS WELL. THE CAR HAS BOTH TOPS AND THE CONVERTIBLE TOP LOOKS ALMOST BRAND NEW INCLUDING THE BACK PLASTIC WINDOWS. THE POWER TOP OPERATES WITHOUT A GLITCH AS WELL. MECHANICALLY IT RUNS AND DRIVES DOWN THE ROAD VERY WELL AND THE ICE COLD AIR CONDITIONING WILL COOL YOU DOWN EVEN HERE IN THE ARIZONA 115 DEGREE SUMMER. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL OWNER'S MANUAL'S, THE WINDSCREEN IS STILL IN PLACE AND THE SPARE TIRE HAS NEVER EVEN HIT THE GROUND!!! IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A VERY NICE PRE-OWNED SL500, THEN LOOK NO FURTHER. THESE CARS ARE AN EXCEPTIONAL VALUE FOR THE MONEY AND GREAT BANG FOR THE BUCK CAR. THE AMG PACKAGE NOT ONLY MAKES IT WAY MORE DESIRABLE BUT UPDATES THE WHOLE LOOK TO THE CAR AS A MUCH NEWER MODEL YEAR THEN IT ACTUALLY IS.
