1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SL

Debuting for 1990, the R129-generation of Mercedes-Benzs SL-series grand-touring roadster had it all -- handsome looks, strong performance, plenty of comfort and a one-touch convertible top that disappeared underneath a sleek tonneau cover when down.



Here we have a 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500 SL that has been well-cared for by its two long-time owners and presents a lot of bang for the buck. The body is in nice condition, with its original bright Red paint still looking fine. The SL still wears its original alloy wheels which are likewise in nice condition, and they wear fairly recent Cooper tires.



Inside, the leather upholstery is very presentable, with the only notable flaw being a worn spot on the drivers seat bolster. The dash, console and carpets are all in impressive condition while an Alpine AM/FM/CD audio system provides the tunes on those long road trips.



Under the sleek hood is the original 5.0-liter 322-horsepower V8 that sends its smooth and ample power to a 4-Speed automatic transmission. Having just been serviced, the SL moves out swiftly when wanted and has a confident demeanor when thrown some curves on your favorite back roads. On a long interstate trip, the Benz effortlessly gobbles up the miles, its relaxed demeanor at speed a testament to its Autobahn breeding, where triple-digit cruising is the norm.



When you want to drop the top, simply press the red button on the console and the mechanical ballet that follows is captivating. The color-matched tonneau cover pops open, the top drops down beneath it and the cover goes back down, preserving the cars sleek profile. Note that this car also comes with the removable hardtop.



Boasting a clean Carfax and priced at less than 10 percent of its original sticker price, this clean and well-kept SL 500 presents an incredible, high-performance, grand touring convertible experience for a mere fraction of its original cost.
