This is a $50k car in 5-10 years. They don't build them like this anymore and never will. Somebody's getting lucky if this meets reserve.

So wish I was in the marketDecember 12th, 2022 at 1:42am EST$13,000 bid placed by @TrueSpecDecember 11th, 2022 at 4:14pm ESTStathios (45) Seller 1Hello everyone, I am happy to present this incredible R129. Most collectors would say this is the ultimate spec for the R129 SL500 as it is equipped with every single option available and being the final year to include the higher output M119 V8 with dual overhead cams and four valves per cylinder. Not to mention the iconic Mercedes color combination of brilliant silver over black. The 1999 model year introduced the M113 V8 which made less power, was only single overhead cam, and was subject to Chrysler cost cutting. The R129 SL500 is a 1990's icon being featured in many movies, music videos, and plenty of celebrity fleets including Lady Diana herself. Many collectors of these cars today are drawn to the timeless Bruno Sacco design. Bruno Sacco claimed the R129 to be the masterpiece of his lifetime. What is incredible about this particular 1998 SL500 is how rare, well kept, and original it is. Completely rust free, original paint confirmed by paint meter readings, and all original glass and soft top windows. As seen in the driving video, this car is performing entirely as it should. I strongly suggest watching the entire video as it exhibits everything from the soft top operation to the auto leveling xenon headlamps. To my knowledge, there has never been a single other 96-98 SL500 to sell here, on BaT, Cars & Bids, or any online site touting a true full spec as seen here.
