Vehicle Description
First introduced in 1989, the R129 generation Mercedes Benz SL
series was a worthy replacement for its long running predecessor.
Featuring a wide range of six, eight, and twelve cylinder engines
and the latest mechanical and electronic innovations, the SL was an
immediate success. The final production model of this series was
the limited edition "Silver Arrow" as a tasteful homage to the
racing successes on Mercedes in the 1930s. These editions include
the specific shade of silver paint, a unique two-tone interior,
two-piece wheels, and a beautiful machined aluminum dash. Only
1,550 of these were made for the US market, making them extremely
rare.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this very nice example for
your consideration. Having done less than 45k miles since new, this
car has had just a single owner and has been meticulously cared
for. Finished in the special 777 code Silver Arrow paint, this car
is utterly gorgeous and has an excellent exterior. The body is
complemented by the special staggered 18in polished six spoke rims
featuring Michelin tires, dual exhaust pipes, Xenon headlights, and
polished aluminum exterior trim. The two tone interior is very
clean and features black and white Nappa leather on the power seats
which also feature heated seats. Special dark birdseye maple wood
trim, electric tilt steering wheel, remote locking, power windows,
6-speaker Bose audio, auto climate control, black power soft top,
and factory matching hardtop are all part of the deal.
Being a special motorsport inspired model, this SL500 is no slouch
and features and excellent 5.0L 302hp V8 mated to a 5-speed
automatic transmission. The engine is very smooth but still has an
excellent exhaust note and is rated for 16/23mpg. Other features
include the AMG styling body kit, cross drilled front and rear
brake rotors, multilink rear suspension, ABS, and traction control.
With an original MSRP of over $120k adjusted for inflation, this
car is an extraordinary value that will sure to be a future
collectable. It comes with two keys, owners manual, and window
sticker.
