I'm selling my 1999 SL Mercedes convertible. I got a ride in the car when it was brand new! My best friend purchased the car new for his wife in 1999. They sold me the car in 2004 or 05 with around 10,000 miles on it. His wife hated it because it has such a sporty ride (AMG suspension and wheels). It doesn't float, this car grabs the road and has amazing power. I sold the car a couple years later to my lady friend in San Dimas, CA with approximately 14,000 miles on it. She had her hip replaced last year, and it was difficult for her to get in and out of it, so I bought it back in March with approximately 34,000 miles on it. I have enjoyed having it back, but I just bought a new car this week and need the room.
I have the original hard top, which is also in perfect condition and stored in my garage on a stand made to hold these hard tops. I will include it in the sale as well. I am happy to send photos of it to anyone that requests them. Sorry, I couldn't post a photo of the car with the hard top, but it takes 2 people to put it on. I also have the factory keys, 2 remote keys and a valet key.
The car has NEVER been smoked in, always garaged and hand washed. It has also only had Mobile 1 synthetic oil it's whole life.
The brakes are fairly recent, as are the tires. I recently had the mass air flow sensor replaced, and it has a new gas cap too. The mechanic that worked on it said the engine is perfect as are the motor mounts. My friend in California also had the AC compressor replaced. The AC works awesome, as does everything on this car.
There are no major cosmetic issues. There is some normal wear and tear on a car of its age including: 2 small paint chips around the area where the gas goes in, there is a crack and a scrape to the underside of the front bumper - caused from pulling too close to those concrete things in a parking lot and then backing out. I though about having that repaired, but frankly you cannot see it unless you're on the ground looking up. The floor mats are fairly new, dark brown color so they show no dirt. The leather is soft and supple, showing little if any sign of wear. The car is in overall fabulous condition. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with it. This would be awesome for someone back east, as the car has never been driven in snow or ice and not even purposely in the rain! Although, I will admit it's been rained on twice that I know of.
I think I've covered everything, but if you have any questions, I'll be happy to assist in any way I can.
As far as shipping goes, the buyer will be responsible and I will cooperate and assist moving company. OR you can pick it up yourself if you like. I would be happy to pick you up at the airport and you can drive it home.
Serious buyers, please. Thank you. Certified funds only. PayPal deposit required.

Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG formalize technical partnership
Thu, 19 Dec 2013The development of a partnership between Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin has been a long time coming. The news dates back to 2008, and over the five years since was supposed to lead to a rejuvenation of both the Maybach and Lagonda brands. That program ultimately fell apart, but the tie-in was forged afresh in July when the two automakers signed a letter of intent over a renewed partnership. And now that partnership has been formalized.
In a deal just announced, Mercedes-AMG will build a new V8 engine for Aston Martin that will power a new generation of luxury GTs for the British marque, presumably to replace the 4.7-liter V8 in the Vantage. The relationship appears to be similar to the one already in place between AMG and Pagani, only in this case, will involve Daimler taking as much as a five-percent stake in Aston Martin and an observer seat on Aston's board.
The technical partnership is also set to lead to the supply of electric and electronic systems, and could incorporate "additional areas of cooperation in the future." Whether that will include a fresh attempt at reviving Lagonda remains to be seen, as does the future of Aston's long-serving, Ford-based 6.0-liter V12 engine. But for now you can read the full announcement below.
Meet Buster, this 1968 Porsche racecar transporter from Mercedes
Thu, Dec 11 2014If you're thinking about Porsche and Mercedes-Benz when it comes to motorsports, your first thought is probably on the two German brands battling on the track. However, for decades, whenever Porsche's factory team went to compete, a custom Mercedes was right along with them hauling the racecars. These days the truck lives in the Brumos Collection in Jacksonville, FL, and goes by the nickname Buster. However, its story goes back to 1968 when Porsche ordered two commercial vehicles from Mercedes and then handed them over to a Stuttgart-based outfitter for customization. The results were these racing transporters that hauled models like the 917 and 956 until the '80s. The other survived, too, with a place in Porsche's collection. Well-known racers in their own right, Brumos scooped up the transporter in 2003 and have kept driving it to vintage racing events. The interior now boasts the signatures of many of the great drivers from the era of this historic truck. Watch the video for the whole story on the Mercedes with a whole lot of Porsche inside.
