This 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL500 was purchased new by the seller’s father-in-law from Fletcher Jones Motor Cars of Newport Beach, California, and now has 17k miles. The car is finished in Aegean Blue over Ash leather and powered by a 5.0-liter V8 paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission. Additional equipment includes a power-retractable hardtop, Active Body Control suspension, bi-xenon headlights, chrome 18″ wheels, heated and power-adjustable seats, and COMAND with navigation.
The car is finished in Aegean Blue (946) and features a power-retractable hardtop. Aftermarket window tint has been added, and other features include bi-xenon headlights, fog lamps, auto-dimming mirrors, and dual exhaust outlets.
Five-spoke 18″ chrome wheels are wrapped in an older set of staggered-width Michelin Pilot Sport tires, which the seller states should be replaced. The car rides on Active Body Control (ABC) suspension, and stopping power is provided by anti-lock four wheel disc brakes with cross-drilled front rotors.
The heated and power-adjustable seats are upholstered in Ash leather (208), and the cabin features matching carpets, a two-tone dashboard and door panels, and burl wood veneer accents. Amenities include dual-zone automatic climate control, a Bose sound system with a six-disc CD changer, and COMAND with navigation. The seller notes that the trunk struts need to be replaced. Sheepskin seat covers are included in the sale.
The multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel features burl wood accents and frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline, inset monochrome LCD screens, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer indicates 17k miles.
The 5.0-liter M113 V8 was factory rated at 302 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a seven-speed automatic transmission.
The window sticker lists factory colors and equipment as well as a Total Retail Price of $94,200.
