Powered by a 5.0-liter V8 engine mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission, this 1999 Mercedes-Benz R129 SL500 comes finished in Black over Grey leather upholstery. It features the AMG Styling Package, 17” AMG monobloc wheels, burred walnut root interior trim, and more. Showing just over 70k miles on the odometer, this SL500 is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Tennessee.
This example comes finished in Black (040U) with a matching removable hardtop and convertible soft top. The AMG Styling Package adds an aerodynamically optimized front spoiler, side skirts, and 17” AMG monobloc wheels. New Roadrunner tires have been mounted. The seller notes scrapes on the trunk lid and corners of the front bumper, some discoloration on the rear plastic window, imperfections on the hood, and minor curb rash on the wheels. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a CARFAX reporting minor damage in May 2007.
The cabin features Grey leather (238A) upholstery complemented by burred walnut root veneers. Equipment includes power-adjustable seats, an automatically-dipping rear view mirror, power windows, an MB Audio 30 radio, a Bose audio system, a car phone, automatic climate control, and cruise control. All gauges and electronics are said to be working properly.
An M113 5.0 L 24-valve V8 engine sends 302 HP and 339 foot-pounds of torque to the rear wheels through a traditional 5-speed automatic transmission. Standard equipment includes 4-wheel disc brakes with ABS and the Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The seller adds that an oil and filter service was recently performed along with the rebuilding of all convertible top cylinders.
This sale will include a clean title, a toolkit, the factory spare tire, a wind deflector, and a CD changer.
The seller would like you to know: “These are some of the most comfortable roadsters to drive. Luxurious and modern interiors. Smooth and strong power. Timeless and classic styling. This is a very clean and cared-for example that would be a pleasant addition to anyone’s garage.”

Does the a/c blow cold?
Thank you. Good info!
@PartsAndLabor Oh yes, no issues cold starting.
Thanks! Miles
Doesn’t reliably cold start?
@bkchap1 There are the scrapes on the trunk lid that I would probably have repainted down the road. The mirrors on the visors are sort of fragile and I source out a new set. There are some other little interior bits that I may tidy up. On the soft top, the plastic window has some slight discoloration that I was able to take most out with some plastic polish. I would probably finish that up to make it all clear. Mechanically, I can not think of anything that it needs. Nice driving car and very smooth.
Thanks!

Does the car need anything? If you were keeping it, what would you do next?
