1996 Mercedes-Benz SL500

This is one of the rarest post-war Mercedes Benz models around. There were only 40 examples of the 1996 Mercedes-Benz SL500 US 500 Edition ever. Oh yeah! Youre looking at a low-mileage example of a seldom-seem car from one of the most prestigious marques in the world. So while you will often find good care in the world of responsible Benz owners, you can also tell there has been extra attention paid to something this special. The porcelain-like white paint, supple leather interior, and fuel-injected V8 all have the look and feel of a car that has barely done more than just parade laps every year (averaging under 575 miles annually.) So dig into the details of a rare and luxurious classic that is surprisingly obtainable. HIGHLIGHTS 1 of 40 US 500 Editions ever Special fender logos and floor mats US 500 Edition commemorative packet Paint, interior, engine, and all fundamentals appear original and preserved Desirable SL1 Sport package -AMG full body kit --Upgraded light setup --18-inch AMG Monoblock alloy wheels Two roofs: black folding soft top and color-matched hardtop Luxurious gray leather interior Power everything: seats, roof, windows, locks, mirrors, and steering Modern safety with dual airbags, side airbags, and ABS Premium factory AM/FM/cassette stereo Automatic A/C climate control 5.0-liter V8 is a fuel-injected 32-valve DOHC V8 Five-speed automatic transmission Four-wheel power disc brakes Multi-link fully independent suspension The US 500 Edition may only be distinguished by its fender badges and its carpeting, but its significance is amazing. The 40 special edition cars were all used as parade vehicles as part of IndyCars U.S. 500 (CARTs version of the Indy 500.) So these are a small part of a unique time in American motor racing history. Its a terrific story to tell especially when you combine it with tidbits like how a 300 SL gullwing alloy-body is only slightly rarer than this. And its this uniqueness combined with great care, loaded features, and sporty AMG details that keep this car a cut above. So what youre looking at is the affordable way to get a Benz of double-digit rarity and lavish distinction. Thats why we know this deal will be moving fast. Call today!!!
