1998 MERCEDES BENZ SL500 This vehicle has excellent original black paint that looks excellent (for the age), and an excellent accident free body, free from any damage. It has been in southern California its whole life, so the is absolutely NO rust anywhere. The leather interior is in very good to excellent condition (for the age). The soft top is a bit worn, but is leak free. The power top works excellently. The vehicle has 4 brand new Michelin Pilot tires with less than 1000 miles on them and the chrome wheels are in excellent condition. Everything is working well, including ice cold A/C. This vehicle is equipped with some options, that are very rare and found only in the SL600. ADAPTIVE DAMPING SYSTEM $4350 MULTI COUNTOURED SEATS $350 each HEATED SEATS $595 INTERGRATED CELL PHONE (outdated), but looks cool This vehicle has been dealer serviced with the last major service at 104215 miles. It runs and drives as new.
MINOR ISSUES... The latch that secures the upper part of the top has a leaky seal. It is only present when you open or close the top, it will drip a few drops of hydraulic fluid. The motor is working perfectly. There is an excellent youtube video showing how to replace the seals (very easy and inexpensive). One of the pre-set buttons on the stereo popped off and is missing. There is NO HARDTOP. Key unlocks and locks vehicle, however, when locked the drivers door doesn't lock, alarm will sound if door is opened when armed.
This vehicle will retain its value for many years, you will not be disappointed. It is an absolute joy to drive. It is a very tight driving vehicle and was close to $100k when sold new. This is the last year of the R129 SL500 before Chrysler merged. Most R129 enthusiast believe that the 1997 and 1998 models are the best made and most sought after. Please message me for more detailed information. Title is in hand. |

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
Next Mercedes S-Class stretching into this 600 Pullman limo
Fri, 15 Mar 2013To the concern of nobody in particular, Mercedes-Benz will not be re-upping its Maybach line of ultra-luxury limousines. No, instead the German automaker will be stretching its already roomy S-Class, to make this upcoming 600 Pullman version of the decked-out beast.
The car in our new gallery of spy shots is sporting beefy B-pillars and a massive set of rear doors that should allow perfectly graceful ingress and egress from what is likely to be a palatial rear space. (In one photo we can even see a long-wheelbase S-Class in line with the new Pullman, handily exhibiting the size of the new variant.) The exterior modifications are otherwise obscured, though we can guess at revised front and rear fascia and lighting elements, based on both end being heavily taped for these test runs.
It's a good bet that the Pullman will make use of M-B's twin-turbocharged V12 engine, though sources indicate that a hybrid version might eventually be in the offing, as well.
Rare Isdera Imperator 108i flexes its considerable muscles
Mon, 05 Aug 2013The Isdera Imperator 108i is a remarkably rare supercar from the late 80s and early 90s. Born of a Mercedes-Benz concept car, it's powered by a range of AMG-developed V8s, with five to six liters of displacement, depending on the engine. The example shown here, lapping the legendary Spa-Francorchamps circuit, features the most potent 6.0-liter V8 available. And rather than just being driven about on a perfectly clean racing line, it's freaking power sliding!
Yes, there's something eternally childlike about a wedge-shaped supercar from our formative years being flung about a Belgian racetrack. Adding to the appeal is the Imperator's stumpy, periscopic rear mirror, sticking out of the roof. Even after being out of production for 20 years, this is still a wild, wild car and we'd happily snap up the opportunity pilot one of the 36 Isderas that were built. Take a look below for the full video from Spa.
