This 2002 Mercedes-Benz SL500 remained in Colorado until the seller’s purchase in 2023, and it now has 31k miles. The car is finished in black over black Nappa leather and is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes the SL2 Sport Package, a removable hardtop with a panoramic glass roof, a power-operated black soft top, 18″ five-spoke AMG wheels, fog lights, heated power-adjustable seats, a Bose sound system, a remote six-disc CD changer, and automatic climate control. This R129 is offered with service records, a window sticker, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Virginia title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in black (040) and features a matching removable hardtop with a panoramic glass roof and a power-operated black soft top. Additional exterior equipment includes fog lights, xenon headlights, and fender air vents. Two replacement soft top hydraulic cylinders were fitted in preparation for the sale. The seller notes that the soft top operation switch is illuminated and will beep a few times upon use. Close-up photographs of the exterior finish and trim are shown in the gallery below along with photos of the hardtop.
Silver 18″ five-spoke AMG wheels are mounted with Continental ExtremeContact tires. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes with ABS. The front brake pads and rotors were replaced in 2021.
The cabin features heated power-adjustable seats upholstered in black Nappa leather along with burl wood accents on the doors and center stack. Amenities include a deployable roll bar, seat position memory, a Bose sound system, a remote six-disc CD changer, a heated rear hardtop window, cruise control, and automatic climate control. The head unit powers on, but requires a code to operate.
The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, a clock, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil temperature, fuel economy, and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 31k miles, approximately 100 of which were added under current ownership.
The 5.0-liter M113 V8 was factory rated at 302 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission. The differential cover was resealed in 2021.
The Carfax report is free of accidents or other reported damage.
