I am selling my 1994 MB SL 320 with just about 6000 miles/year (115000 only)! The 6 cylinder is one of the best engines that Mercedes ever built and it is virtually bullet proof!
These cars can be found either very cheap or very expensive ... however, the very cheap ones WILL cost you money very soon, the very expensive ones are probably very nice and worth buying IF you plan to keep them for a very long time, otherwise you will lose quite a bit of your money.
With this one, you would get something to enjoy right away, it could easily be brought up to "showroom appearance" with just a bit of extra work, or driven every day as is!
When i bought the car last year, I spent a considerable amount of money on it (and i did not even buy it cheaply!):
- replaced tires and brakes
- replaced soft top hydraulics
- replaced soft top clear windows
- replaced electrical wire harness (this is an expensive job; unfortunately most SL sold in the early 90s had a bad harness, with insulation that would disintegrate over the years - if you are looking at any other car like this one, do make sure to check if the harness has been replaced, it MUST be done)
- general maintenance
- had the (chrome) wheels, grille, badges, fenders and rocker panels 'rubberized'; they are painted with a rubber material that improves the looks (it is nice matte black) and protects the paint; easy to touch up or even to remove if one doesn't want it anymore
basically, it needs nothing now; everything works as it should, cold a/c, and the car drives great; fuel consumption is very decent as well, this is not a gas guzzler like the 500!
the car is in a beautiful metallic dark charcoal with light grey leather interiors; no rips on the leather seats, Bose sound system. It comes with hard top, in excellent shape, and even a roller dolly and cover for easy storage.
these vehicles were almost $100k when new, and are built to last. I am selling it only because i need a larger car, the two seater is not practical for me anymore.

Mercedes-Benz releases stunning first images of 2014 S-Class
Mon, 18 Mar 2013
The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, designated W222, is one of the most highly anticipated debuts of its model year. Every generation of the flagship sedan has broken new ground in technology and innovation for the entire industry, and the German automaker appears determined to raise the bar much further with its latest arrival as it promises to deliver "the best automobile in the world." Mercedes-Benz has just released nearly two dozen interior images of the new sedan, showing off style in design, craftsmanship in execution and pioneering advancements in technology.
Unlike all previous generations - the first S-Class officially arrived in 1972 - the 2014 model completely discards a traditional instrument cluster and replaces it with two high-resolution color displays in 8:3 format with a screen diagonal of 12.3 inches (the outgoing model's gauges were a mix of digital and analog). The left unit displays traditional analog gauges (digitally, of course) while the right unit is reserved for infotainment and comfort settings with the automaker's all-new mBrace2 - a cloud-based entertainment and information delivery system that is rolling out this year.
Is Audi getting complacent and suffering from brain drain?
Wed, 27 Nov 2013The argument is made in a Reuters article: Audi is falling behind other luxury brands, such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW, due to a lack of research-and-development spending and "brain drain," or the migration of top executives and R&D chiefs to other parts of the Volkswagen Group. Reuters notes that Audi's current R&D chief is the third in 16 months.
Audi, which contributed to 40 percent of VW Group's $11.6 billion in profit the first nine months of the year, is delivering cars at a record pace: 1.31 million were delivered from January to October 2013 versus BMW's 1.35 million. Yet Audi, Reuters reports, doesn't have a halo car akin to BMW's new electrified i3 and i8 or an answer to Mercedes' plug-in-hybrid S-Class, and the R&D spending at Audi is less than BMW and Mercedes by a fair margin. It's noted in the article, however, that Audi benefits from other R&D spending within VW Group.
Reuters mentions that BMW "trumpets its new 'i' series" and the new Mercedes CLA and GLA ranges are winning "rave reviews" as part of its argument that Audi's recent lack of technological innovation could hurt future sales. Those cars do pack tons of new technology, some of which are firsts for mainstream production cars. But last time we checked, the i3 could be causing BMW's stock to slide, the CLA isn't receiving the rave reviews that Reuters would have you believe and the GLA hasn't been reviewed yet.

Mon, 19 Aug 2013LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.
