This is going to a new home tonight, good luck whoever gets it!August 5th, 2021 at 4:21pm EST$360,000 bid placed by @PCrawfordAugust 5th, 2021 at 3:53pm EST$357,000 bid placed by @ariok47August 5th, 2021 at 1:39pm ESTgdesena719 (54) 2I won't be surprised to see bidding pick up again later in the day. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this car was originally purchased from my servicing dealership. I hope the reserve gets met and that this truly exquisite car finds its new home today. Best of luck!August 5th, 2021 at 12:06pm ESTMika (6) 2A beautiful car. It looks like bidding has stalled. It seems that the market is softening a bit and cars like the SLR will be some of the first to be impacted. Good luck for a strong finish.

We're almost at the reserve, I didn't set it anything unrealistic. There are only 2 of these, the other one sold at RM Sothebys last year, January 2020, for $324,000 and it had 8700 miles. Hopefully this car find its way to a great collection today.

I see lots of comments online of how it looks too much like an SL. In person that is not remotely true, the coachwork, the vents, the length of the hood, you can definitely tell its not an R230 if you ever encounter one. It's incredibly long, I drive a '21 e63s wagon and parked side by side(you can see the wagon in the back of the walkaround vid) its almost as long as the wagon, so it may be 2 doors but it is a very long car, very unique for a sports car for sure.

July 29th, 2021 at 7:35pm ESTdantheman814 (9) Seller 1@mika it’s stored in a climate controlled garage at my condo. The really hot and humid houston weather doesn’t affect it. I wish I had a paint meter to show you but I don’t have one, I’m not a car dealer so don’t exactly have one lying around. I will say Mercedes greenway would never have taken the car back in trade if it had been repainted. I purchased it from them in January right after they took it in trade. They told me it had never been repainted and I knew the guy in charge so I trust what he told me is trueJuly 29th, 2021 at 7:20pm ESTMika (6) 1Since you live in a condominium, can you tell us whether it’s garage kept or if you keep it outside under a cover? Also, in the same vein can you please post paint meter readings from around the car?July 29th, 2021 at 2:41pm ESTdantheman814 (9) Seller 2@vincero truthfully this wasn’t even a planned purchase. My dad was at the dealer ordering his new s class in January and sent me a pic of this on the showroom floor and I bought it in less than an hour. I’m selling bc I live in a condo with 2 parking spaces, nothing more. I’d rather my not daily driver be something I can put lots of miles on. As you can see I’ve added almost 600 since January. That’s quite a bit for 6 months of ownership. This car is a museum piece, I’m a driver. This is a car for someone with a big collection who wants to stare at it and keep miles low, it was an impulse buy for me. I love it, it’s beautiful, it’s rare, but I want something I can drive without caring about mileage.July 29th, 2021 at 1:30pm ESTVincero (0) 0It’s funny how none of these cars have high miles. I don’t know why they all have low miles. @Seller can you share why you are not keeping something I expect to be a future classic like the 300SL? Didn’t MB produce less of this model?July 29th, 2021 at 12:12pm EST$275,000 bid placed by @Mk77July 28th, 2021 at 3:00pm EST$228,888 bid placed by @mbzcollectorJuly 28th, 2021 at 1:43pm EST$205,500 bid placed by @ariok47July 28th, 2021 at 1:04pm EST$205,000 bid placed by @MB8605July 28th, 2021 at 8:37am ESTgearhead888 (15) 5This car is even more breathtaking in person. It is in absolutely stunning condition & I'd rate this SLR roadster a solid 10 out of 10! Seen, heard and drooled over this SLR McLaren in person.
