Car is being relisted. Was very close to reserve, and had a few "meat heads" who wanted to be unrealistic; so, please be sincere and I will do the same in return.

FINDING A BLACK / BLACK ONE IS HARD ENOUGH, LET ALONE IT BEING A SPORT EDITION. I LIVE IN A BIG CITY AND HAVE NOT SEEN A TWIN YET. 

We have a family friend who does door to door, insured shipping, and will do so at a discounted rate to facilitate. Let me know if you need a quote. The car deserves to be put on a truck and trailered to its next home if you are out of State. It is one of the nicest, original, and well preserved mileage SL500 Convertibles you may see. The pictures tell most of the story...... and it is even more impressive in person. 

I reserve the right to end the listing early for any reason, as it is also being listed on other resources. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly at: 305-302-4617Properly stored year round and only driven in good weather. 

1999 Mercedes Benz SL500 Conv ( built 7/99 - late production) w/ $5000.00 Sport Edition Pkg. ( 18 AMG wheels, Ground effects, side vents, and upgraded bumpers that is all factory ) w/ 53000 miles - Very desirable - Black / Black / Black. Everybody that knows this car says it still looks like it has been in a Dealership for years. It is an awesome, non-smoking, 2 owner ( Dealer serviced ), that has been babied, always garaged, and barely seen rain. It is in outstanding, all original condition. Never modified in any way whatsoever. I have all of the original paperwork, books, hardtop stand / cover, and 3 orig. keys, tool kit, and windscreen ( see pic ). CAR NEEDS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

The Black exterior is in awesome condition, and has never had paint work. The moldings, handles, window glass, lettering, rubber seals, and all other exterior features are in crisp condition. The AMG wheels are not discolored or corroded and the tires are almost new. The Black soft top looks like new ( I did not take the hardtop off because you need 2 people around ). Never run through an automatic car wash and always hand washed / waxed are a great part as to why it still looks so fabulous. No rust or wear to the undercarriage. A solid 9.5 on the outside.

On the inside, the Black interior still looks, feels, and maintains that newer appeal. As you can see in the pics, the seats have always been covered, and the orig. floor mats have Benz mats over them. The door panels, carpeting, dash, center console, faceplates, etc. are original. All of the interior buttons / switches ( power windows, door locks, cruise, antenna, and 6 way power seats ) work without issue. The stereo system w/ multi CD still plays perfect. The undercarriage is dry, spotless, and rust free too. A 9.75 inside. 

Mechanically, it starts, idles, and drives smoothly as a "well-oiled" machine should. Service is up to date - a/c, belts, hoses, fluids all changed / maintained at the proper intervals, along with convertible top hydraulics. The engine compartment / undercarriage are extra clean / dry, and it performs without hesitation. No corner has been cut or expense spared. 

The next owner will have years of enjoyable and trouble free use, turning heads when you pull up or drive by.

Weekly Recap: Toyota propels hydrogen fuel cells

Sat, Jan 10 2015

Toyota is serious about hydrogen fuel cells, and it wants the auto industry to follow suit. The Japanese automaker said this week it's releasing 5,680 fuel cell patents from around the world, including technologies used on its upcoming sedan, the 2016 Mirai. The move is unusual, but not unprecedented, as Tesla similarly released its electric vehicle patents last year. The idea for Tesla, and now for Toyota, is to spur development of alternative propulsion. "By eliminating traditional corporate boundaries, we can speed the development of new technologies and move into the future of mobility more quickly, effectively and economically," said Bob Carter, Toyota Motor Sales senior vice president of automotive operations, in a statement. Toyota's fuel cell patents will be free to use through 2020, though patents related to producing and selling hydrogen will remain open forever. Toyota said it would like companies that use its patents to share their own hydrogen patents, but won't require it. "What Toyota's doing is really a logical move, and really a good move for the industry," Devin Lindsay, principal powertrain analyst with IHS Automotive, told Autoblog. The announcement was made at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It comes as Toyota prepares to launch the hydrogen-powered Mirai in a limited number late this year in California. The launch will be extended to the Northeastern United States next year. Toyota also has announced plans to support networks of fueling stations in each region to try to smooth consumer adoption. The Mirai has a 300-mile range on a tank of hydrogen, and it takes about five minutes to refill. Fuel cells have been receiving increased attention recently, and Audi and Volkswagen debuted hydrogen-powered cars at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Honda, another proponent of the technology, also showed its updated FCV concept in November in Japan. The company, however, has delayed its fuel cell sedan a year until 2016. Like Toyota, Honda says its hydrogen-powered car will have a range of 300 miles or more. Meanwhile, Hyundai currently offers leases for fuel-cell powered Tucsons, which have a 265-mile range, in Southern California. Despite the optimism some automakers have for fuel cells, the technology still faces barriers. A lack of filling stations has long held it back, and many consumers are not familiar with the potential benefits.

The hottest modern sports cars rendered as rally racers

Thu, Jan 14 2016

The modern-day World Rally Championship a monumental amount of fun to watch – I should know, as I recently was lucky enough to head to the UK to watch WRC Wales Rally GB – but even the most monstrous of the current WRC cars are based on fairly pedestrian European hatchbacks. Back in the heyday of rally, the Group B era in the 1980s, much hotter cars were the basis of even more incredible competition machines, for the most part. Take the exotic Ford RS200, or the Lancia Delta S4 with its twin-charged engine. And the hatchback-based Group B cars were bonkers, too. So what would some of our favorite modern cars look like if Group B had never ended? A British site named CarWow hired an artist to reimagine everything from the Rolls-Royce Wraith to the Porsche 911 as a retro-inspired rally car, and they were kind enough to let us share the results in the gallery above. The gallery features an Alfa Romeo Giulia in Martini livery, an Audi TT in classic Ur-Quattro colors, a Fiat 500 Abarth sporting massive flares and a hood blister full of auxiliary lights, a new Ford Mustang in RS200 livery, a Lancia Delta in Alitalia colors, a Porsche 911 in Rothmans livery, a Renault-Alpine in classic blue, a Rolls-Royce Wraith tribute to the Jules cologne Corniche Coupe, and a relatively modern-looking VW Touran. So far, the favorite around the office is the incredible Mercedes-Benz S-Class that is an homage to the wonderful 300 SEL 6.8 AMG "Red Pig" that essentially put AMG on the map. Check out the gallery above and see which one you like the best. Related Video:
