Vehicle Description
HIGHLIGHTS: Low-mileage, well-kept vehicle from a private
collection! This gorgeous white and gray 500SL is in great shape
and ready for a new home!
BODY OVERVIEW: Clean and straight is the only way to describe it!
This Mercedes appears to have always been kept as a "fun" car, and
has clearly been pampered all its life. One glance down the side of
this car tells you all you need to know!
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: The exterior is finished in the classic
Arctic White with gray cladding. The paint appears to be original,
and is in excellent condition overall with only a few minor defects
to be found. Most notably, there is a small area of damage on the
rear bumper as shown in the photos. White looks great on these
cars, and makes it look far more modern than it is!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: Step inside, and you'll be transported
right back to the 1990s when Mercedes-Benz was cranking out some
seriously modern, luxurious vehicles. The interior is finished in a
soothing gray material with the ever classic and tasteful Mercedes
wood trim.. The interior is very nice, clean, and complete showing
only minor wear on the driver's seat outer bolster.
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: The engine runs smoothly and quietly; this is
a beautiful example of German engineering inside and out! The 5.0L
V8 is a great powerplant for this car, and provides plenty of pep
while also pumping out that sweet, subtle, Mercedes-Benz V8 exhaust
note. This car comes complete with a variety of service records
going back to the 1990s, further bolstering its well-maintained
appearance.
WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: The color, condition, and the
convenience of having both a soft top and hard top.
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: This one is tough to hate!
DOES IT NEED ANYTHING? Nope, this car is ready to join a collection
or be enjoyed on the open road.
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR? Any buyer that is looking for a
well-preserved example of this modern classic!

omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by
third parties. The majority of these vehicles are considered

If marked "Numbers Matching" or "Original Mileage", the
consignor(current owner) states this vehicle as such. Given how
easy it is to create a "clone" or "tribute", we cannot guarantee
the authenticity of any and all claims. Customer is encouraged to
verify this information on their own, prior to purchase.
We can assist you in delivery through our network of private and
commercial carriers most of which can deliver the vehicle to your
driveway. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays
incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody.
Because we advertise each vehicle with so many third-party
affiliates, it is the customer's sole responsibility to verify the
accuracy of the price with the dealer. All advertised prices
exclude local, state, government fees and taxes and dealer
documentation fee. Pricing is subject to change without notice. A
dealer documentation fee of $250 will be added to the purchase
price at the time of sale.

vehicle will be held for a potential buyer without a non-refundable
deposit collected to hold the vehicle. Contact the dealership about
pricing to place a deposit on a vehicle.
Our preferred and most secure form of payment is a bank wire
transfer. We can accept checks, but note that any form of a check
will have a minimum hold of 10 business days. This includes
cashier's checks, certified checks, or bank checks of any kind. For
cash received in the amount of $10,000 or more, we will complete an
IRS Form 8300. We can not accept any credit card as payment or
partial payment for a vehicle under any circumstance.
