Hold your breath!
by Als500 on 9/19/2026 6:16:32 PM
I purchased my car eight years ago and have loved every minute I’ve owned it! It still turns heads as I drive by and styling is amazing! I have not spent a dime on anything except normal maintenance. It’s the only car that caused me to hold my breath while I drove it! Luxury and speed all in one package! - 5.0
Best of many Mercedes I have owned
by ralph on 3/29/2024 10:07:33 PM
Bought a 2006 500SL for only $9k. Knew I would have to put money in as the car had two leaky struts, bad engine mounts, leaking valve cover gaskets. two bad front wheel bearings. Body and interior in near perfect condition however. Yet at the end of the day I have a $95K car that is more fun and comfortable to drive than a low mileage F430 Ferrari I recently sold! Fixing the ABC is well worth it. The ride is amazing, whether Intestate or rutted, twisty country roads. Body style my all time SL favorite. Mine came with black AMG wheels so I put a black grill on it for a very exotic look. Though only 302 hp, the seven speed transmission helps provide excellent acceleration and gas mileage - which is now averaging 18.5 mpg. Replaced radio with updated Panasonic. Years ago had an '89 560 SL and loved it - but this one has far better power and I do love the classic look - which Mercedes retained on the SL line until 2023. - 5.0
Future Classic
by Jacques on 12/30/2023 11:38:35 PM
Ballin on a budget, but not really- this car has everything except the new toys that people put in the front (computer screen navs). If you are looking for a car and not a computer this one is tough to beat. The handling, the speed, the acceleration... the sound of the engine... this thing is like a baby supercar and even back to 2002 you can still drive this in style in 2024. Awesome bang for buck horsepower.
