Mint 2003 Sl500. Low Miles. Very Rare Color on 2040-cars
Year:2003
Mileage:52254
Location:
Latham, New York, United States

You are looking at a very rare, very beautiful 2003 SL500 with only 52,000 original miles. The color looks so different because it is Graphite Metallic. It looks charcoal in the daylight and black at night. The paint was part of the $7500 Designo Package. You may not notice the Designo Charcoal Interior with Heated, Cooled, and Massaging 12 way adjustable power seats with memory. The Massage and air conditioned seats were part of the SL3 comfort package ($1,250). You will also notice the SL1 Wood package which included the luxury wood wheel (it's beautiful) with leather on the steering wheel, gearknob, and interior trim. Of course, this car also had the SL2 package (at $5100 which included 18.5 x 8.5 (front) and 18x 9 (rear) wheels, body color front spoiler and side skirts. Although included in the purchase, the 18 inch wheels were replaced with the 20's you see in the picture. Bi-Xenon projector beam headlights ($900 option), Parktronic ($1035), and the voice activated Phone and audio package ($1,995) round out the huge option list. As for standard features - the list is even longer: one touch power windows power and heated mirrors, remote keyless locks, trip computer, navigation, cruise control, power tilt and telescoping steering wheel with speed proportional power steering and audio and cruise controls on steering wheel. The audio controls tailor the sound of the 100 watt Bose stereo with six disc cd changer, built in subwoofer and 8 speakers with speed sensitive volume control so you can enjoy the tunes top down at highway speeds. If the rush of wind is too much, you can put up the optional wind deflector and windows and cruise in relative quiet, while still enjoying the sun. Mercedes has pioneered so many safety innovations, it is no surprise that the list on its Roadster is exhaustive: four wheel vented disc brakes with ABS, electronic brakeforce distribution, traction control integrated with suspension control, seatbelt pretensioners, daytime running lights and front and rear fog/driving lights, adjustable body height and abc (roll control), auto headlights with high pressure washers, self leveling headlights, variable interment rain sensing wipers. What you cannot see from the pictures is that this beautiful car was in a minor accident and the right front was damaged. The airbags did not deploy and no frame damage occurred. However, the hood, right fender, headlight, grille, and bumper cover all needed to be repaired/replaced. The owner insisted on new Mercedes parts (which are extremely expensive), and the parts and labor, together exceeded 75% of the vehicle value and it was totaled. This means the owner is given the value of the car pre-accident, and the insurance company sells the car at auction branding the title "salvage, rebuildable". We replaced the damaged parts with donated parts from a car that was hit in the rear and the car was professionally repainted. The car underwent the New York State salvage program inspection, and was granted a rebuilt title, and is on the road currently. This allows immediate registration in most states. Obviously, you should check your state regulations. Please feel free to call with any questions (518.527.8635), or come inspect the car or have a buyers inspection performed. This car looks, runs, and drives like a 2014 car. This is your chance to own a great low mileage roadster, at a fraction of the cost of new, or retail. If you are the winning bidder and don't absolutely love the car upon pickup, I will refund your deposit in full, no questions asked! |

The Mercedes G-Class gets the full Maybach treatment before the curtain finally closes
Mon, Feb 6 2017Like the hotdog and soda combo at Costco or the official website for the 1996 movie Space Jam, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class has soldiered on nearly unaltered since its birth. Sure, there have been variants like the wonderfully over-the-top G63 6x6, but the G-Wagen is essentially the same squared-off SUV with rifle-bolt locks and doors with enough mass to support a minor gravity field. Spy shots show a replacement is finally on the horizon, but based on the leaked YouTube video above and Instagram post below, it looks like the current model is going to get the full Mercedes-Maybach Landaulet treatment before the curtain finally closes. While there has been no official word from the automaker, all signs point to a genuine Mercedes-Maybach product. The vehicle is badged as a G650, which falls in line with other current V12-powered Mercedes-Maybach products. The Maybach name and badge are found in all the expected places. The license closely matches other Mercedes German-manufacturer plates. The carbon fiber fender flares and portal axles look like they were taken from the G550 4x42. The latter means, despite the increased wheelbase, this new model should still be a formidable off-road machine. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. While we can't see the interior, look for the typical Maybach treatment. That means high-quality leather surfaces throughout and an increased focus on rear seat comfort and convenience. If this is indeed a G650, it's packing a 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged V12 under the hood that churns out 630 horsepower and 737 pound-feet of torque. The partial convertible top is what gives this the Landaulet moniker. According to the text on this Instagram post, there will only be 99 examples produced. Look for a full reveal in the next few months. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Weekly Recap: Takeaways from the Frankfurt Motor Show
Sat, Sep 19 2015We obsessively covered the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show, and naturally, we selected our favorites from this fall's biggest automotive event. Now that the dust has settled, we're looking ahead to what it all means. Here are three takeaways from the floor in Frankfurt. The Germans are serious about electric vehicles: It's a bit cliche to say BMW, Mercedes, and Audi have downplayed electrics in favor of other technologies, like diesels. For a time that may have been true, but those three companies, along with Porsche and Volkswagen, are emerging as leaders in EV development. That was on display in Frankfurt, when all of them revealed either all-electric or plug-in hybrid models. Gas prices are relatively low in the United States, but clearly the Germans are thinking long-term and globally. Everyone is serious about SUVs: You gotta have one, even if you're Bentley or Jaguar. It's 2015 and it's what consumers want. As Jaguar design director Ian Callum put it, "Not to be in the sector would be a little naive for the sake of purity." It's not just the flashy exotic luxury makers. Nissan showed the Gripz concept, which is rakish, radical, and meant to blend traits of SUVs and sports cars into a vehicle that really crosses over. Look for more, especially in the luxury sector, as Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini, and Aston Martin ramp up their own SUV efforts. There's no ceiling to the luxury market: Speaking of high-end cars, companies are continuing to invest in extravagant wares beyond just SUVs. Even during the recession, ultra-luxury makers remained relevant, and now they're back at full stride. In Frankfurt, that was illustrated by yet another S-Class model, the cabriolet, which will come in S550 and S63 AMG variants in the United States. Ferrari also showed off the 488 Spider, and Lamborghini opened up the Huracan LP 610-4 Spyder. Meanwhile, Bugatti's Vision Grand Turismo concept reminded enthusiasts that it's plotting life after the Veyron. European auto shows always draw the glitziest reveals from luxury makers, and this year didn't disappoint. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Honda Civic redesigned with snazzier style, turbo power The 10th-generation of the Honda Civic debuted this week at events in Los Angeles and Detroit ahead of its launch in the United States this fall as a 2016 model. Honda fortified the Civic with LED lights, an available turbo engine, and a more tech-laden cabin.
