Vehicle Description
This 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL500 is a true modern classic. That means
it's a low-mileage and well-kept car that's not too far from seeing
vintage plates and registration. But at the same time, the glow of
the premium paint and the level of luxury features can still put
new cars to shame.
Buying a future classic has its advantages. After all, it's hard to
buy a new Miata for this asking price, and you absolutely know it
doesn't get welcomed in the same kind of circles a drop-top SL
does. There's an opulence here as the shine of the premium Magma
Red flows evenly across the expensive formed sheet metal. And the
reason it looks so fantastic today is because of superior Mercedes
engineering and great care from averaging only about 1800 miles
annually. It's the kind of total style that earns the kind of flair
that comes from the bright grille, SLS-inspired side vents, and
polished 18-inch AMG wheels.
The electronic folding roof was one of the best inventions Mercedes
ever put in the SL. It gives you the security and style of a coupe
when you want, and with the electronic folding roof stowed, there's
still room in the trunk for your weekend bags. And we bet you'll
want to take it down just to show off the terrific color combo of
light tan against the opulent red. After all, low mileage means
little seat time, and so you can proudly share this one with the
world. Plus, the dual-zone automatic A/C climate control and heated
seats allow you to enjoy top-down motoring on nearly any sunny day.
And that's just the beginning of the full features list. You also
have power windows, power locks, keyless entry/alarm, cruise
control, a power tilt/telescopic steering wheel, and a premium
AM/FM/CD infotainment stereo system with sat nav. As the driver,
your seat's memory feature will remember to power adjust to your
ideal position. Plus, the buttons on the steering wheel give you
all the essential controls. But there's another side to modern
Mercedes amenities that are always a nice bonus. This premium
marque is known for engineering plenty of safety into their cars,
and this can be seen on items such as dual airbags, side airbags,
anti-lock brakes, and a roll bar that automatically pops up when
danger is detected.
The 302-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 is a finely tuned engine that knows
when you want comfortable and quiet cruising. But it knows to
awaken a true V8 rumble when you're having fun with the accelerator
pedal. This same dual luxury and sporting nature can be found in
the five-speed automatic transmission. It's a normal smooth
automatic when you want leisurely cruising, and the manual mode
will let you tick through the gears when it's time for some
back-roads fun. Add in other features such as the multi-link
independent suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes, and
speed-sensitive power steering, and this is the perfect car to
bypass the country club for more weekend road trip fun.
Complete with the owner's manual packet, you know you should be
paying quite a bit more for this level of preserved modern classic
luxury. So don't let a great deal pass you by. Call today!!!
